Nightmare Attack

Not long after lunch, the sky in the city became gloomy. Tang Qisheng looked up at the continuous dark clouds. The dark clouds were extremely low and made people breathless. "It seems that there will be heavy rain tonight.

Hearing this, the tall soldier packed up the package and sighed, "If the Dragon King wants it to rain, just let it rain. This is a matter for the gods. I just hope that that kind of thing will never happen again. We, the people in Luo'an City, What the people want is stability. They finally stopped fighting, and something strange like this happened again, hey——"

Not long after, a soldier came to report that the general had invited all the masters to a banquet.

Everyone did not dare to delay and headed there immediately. The journey was not very close and took about as long as a stick of incense. The road became more and more remote, away from the main street, and finally stopped in front of a secluded courtyard.

The general stood outside the door to greet them personally, walked all the way to the front yard, and welcomed everyone into the front hall. At this time, a banquet was already placed in the front hall.

After everyone was seated, the general raised his wine glass, and his words were to welcome Jiang Cheng and others who had come from afar. At the banquet, the guests and hosts had a great time, and dishes were brought in from outside the door. When they passed by the front yard, they saw a restaurant The inconspicuous little house was built with a mixture of thatch and soil. It now seems to be the kitchen.

The food on the table was much richer than at noon, especially a meat soup that was said to be made from crane meat. The soup base was extremely delicious. The fat man tasted it for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out how it was made. It seemed to be adulterated. It was mixed with some very special condiments, but all these superficial courtesies came to an abrupt end after the final main course was served.

The last main course was a fish, a very big fish.

The fish was steamed, and the whole fish was placed in a huge tray completely. The fat man stared at the milky white eyes of the fish, and suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

Yes, everyone had thought of everything he could think of. Such a big fish probably came from the so-called Spring God Lake. According to the soldiers, the lake was very evil. The originally calm lake surface would have no warning. Wind and waves were stirred up, or a mist suddenly appeared and filled the entire lake at an extremely fast speed. It was unknown whether there was something hidden inside.

The most important thing is that it is said that the creatures in the lake are full of evil spirits, as if they have been cursed and the food is unknown.

Thinking of this, Fatty stayed away from this fish. But to Fatty's surprise, except for him, no one else seemed to care about this. They just ate what they should. He saw the doctor pick up a chopstick of fish meat and stuff it into it. in the mouth.

Originally, he would have thought that the doctor was just a deception to fool the general, and he would soon find a way to secretly spit it out, but until he saw the doctor's throat rolling a few times, he swallowed.

The fat man was worried, but suddenly, his peripheral vision and the general's eyes collided. The other's slightly amused eyes instantly made the fat man wake up. The fat man also imitated the doctors and others, stretching out his chopsticks to pick up vegetables. Taboo, fish and meat can also be eaten.

After the banquet, the general said goodbye and left. At the same time, he politely asked Jiang Cheng and others to stay here tonight. It was a quiet place and would not be disturbed. He also reminded them that early tomorrow morning, he would come here to take Jiang Cheng and others to Zhennan Hou Mansion. . …

The general just walked out of the front hall door, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped back. He reminded Jiang Cheng and others that the city was not stable after nightfall, and asked them to stay in the room as much as possible and not go anywhere.

Later, he lowered his voice mysteriously and said that even if you hear some strange noises, don't be curious, let alone open the door to check.

After saying these words, the general left before anyone could ask why.

While the remaining soldiers were clearing the dining table, Zhang Qizheng asked about the location of the latrine, and then went out alone. The remaining soldiers quickly cleared the dining table, but did not say a word until Zhang Qizheng returned. of leaving.

The clothes of these soldiers were also different from the soldiers patrolling the city that they had seen before. They looked more like the general, or even the soldiers raised by the Zhennan Hou Mansion.

Before the soldiers left, they also closed the door to the antechamber.

Now only Jiang Cheng and the others were left in the entire front hall. Everyone was gathered together. Fatty couldn't help it and immediately talked about the fish. Unexpectedly, Gao Yanqing sneered with a very contemptuous attitude, "You don't need to say that. , we also saw it, but it was useless, we had to eat it.”

"I know, this is all the general's idea." The fat man thought of the general's strange eyes, and his heart was still filled with chills. It was obvious that they had been plotted again.

In the end, the mature and prudent Zhang Qizheng stood up to smooth things over and said softly: "Brother Wang, there is indeed a problem with that fish, but it's not just that fish that has a problem."

The fat man recalled it for a moment and immediately reacted, "And that crane meat soup?"

When the crane meat soup was brought up, the general personally filled a bowl for everyone, and they couldn't help but drink it. The fat man remembered it clearly. When he thought of this, his expression changed, "You mean the crane meat soup also has fish meat in it?" ?”

But he vaguely felt that something was wrong. He had eaten crane meat before, and it definitely didn't taste like this. In addition to crane meat and fish meat, there must be other things in this crane meat soup, but the other party's methods were very high, and even he The hotel's chef couldn't taste what kind of ingredients or condiments were used.

"Hey, you bunch of idiots, what can't you tell? The soup base is obviously made with something like that." Shaotong suddenly laughed nervously, then licked his lips, his brows filled with weirdness, " It’s a Zihe car.”

After hearing these three words, the fat man reacted for a long time, and then he seemed to suddenly think of some kind of terrifying scene. The next second, there was a violent spasm in his stomach, and he almost vomited it out.

Ziheche is the name when it was used as a traditional Chinese medicine. Its more well-known name is placenta, which is human.

When he thought that he had eaten something like this just now, the fat man felt like there was a fire burning in his stomach. Although Jiang Cheng and others didn't look too good, they could still accept it.

"And the chicken stew. I don't know if you noticed it. Although the chicken was chopped into pieces, there was no chicken head inside. I searched several times but couldn't find it. The general almost noticed it." This time. It was Li Bai who spoke. She said with a cautious look: "This is a chicken with its head cut off. It is for the dying people to eat. After eating it, they can go on their way."

"So this is all a conspiracy. Are we scapegoats for the people in the city?" Zhu Jie asked. …

After a moment of silence, Jiang Cheng slowly shook his head, "I don't think that's entirely the case. If you just want to find a scapegoat, there's no need to go to war like this. There are so many people in the city that if you can't find a few death row prisoners, no one will know. I think the general is deliberately testing our abilities. If we survive tonight, it will prove that we have real talents. If we die, then they will find new experts to come. "

"Yes, Mr. Jiang and I have the same idea. This is more like a test for us. Do you remember what the general said when he left? He said he would come back early to pick us up and take us to the Zhennan Hou Mansion. I think this statement It's true, but the premise is that we can survive. If we die, he will come to collect our bodies tomorrow morning." Tang Qisheng is obviously more experienced than Zhu Jie in this matter, and what he said is consistent with Jiang Cheng's thinking.

"So... something will definitely happen tonight?" The fat man asked cautiously, as if there was something invisible standing around him.

Yao and Shunyu looked at the door. There was a fire outside the door, and two figures were reflected on the door paper. "They also left two soldiers to keep watch outside."

Because the figures moved from time to time, as if moving their stiff bodies, everyone confirmed that the two people were living people, not the clothed straw men seen near the city gate last night.

This house is relatively large and has many rooms, so it is enough for everyone. Zhu Jie suggested that everyone should not separate tonight and live together so that everyone can take care of each other if something happens, but no one responded.

In the end, everyone decided to live on the second floor of the house, because the scene at Fu'an Inn was deeply imprinted in everyone's mind. It really attracted the water of Chunshen Lake. The water was huge. They lived in a high place, which was more or less a little bit better. A time of struggle.

Everyone’s rooms are five rooms connected together, and each room is not very large. Jiangcheng Fatty’s room, Li Bai Yao and Shunyu’s room, Zhang Qizheng and Gao Yanqing’s room, Tang Qisheng and Zhu Jie are a couple, so naturally they are the same. To live in the same room, Fatty was surprised that Lu Qin was willing to live in the same room as Shao Tong. The latter was not normal.

But then he thought again, those who can survive to this day are either powerful disciples or have 800 tricks like a doctor. Especially a guy like Shao Tong who looks abnormal, maybe he is a hidden ruthless character. , and one more thing, Shao Tong actually ate Zihe Che, which means that he must have eaten this thing before, and maybe he still eats it often.

Slowly, Fatty started to think about it. In this environment, he had better worry about himself. In this high-end game, he was just a dispensable bastard, and he often didn't fit in with the rest of his teammates because he wasn't perverted enough.

Although the room is small, it is fairly well-equipped with two small beds, a set of tables and chairs, and a dressing table. This seems to be a woman's room. I also found a large chamber pot under the bed. This is very important. , Anyway, Fatty has made up his mind not to go out tonight unless there is an accident.

Jiang Cheng sat in front of the table, and the candle on the table was burning faintly. Not long after, there was a very light knock on the door. When he opened the door, Li Baiyao and Shunyu immediately walked in, both of them still holding quilts in their arms.

"Is everything arranged?" Jiang Cheng quickly closed the door and turned to ask. …

"Everything is set up, the candles in the room are lit, and the door is closed. No one should notice." Yao Shunyu skillfully spread the bedding on the ground. He didn't want to sleep on the bed, he just wanted everyone to live together. It feels safe.

The fat man couldn't help but sigh after seeing it, "I think Zhu Jie's proposal just now is quite good. Everyone lives together, so there are enough manpower for the night watch."

Unexpectedly, Li Bai shook his head this time, "It's not that simple. This time is different from the previous missions. Don't forget, there were a total of 6 people in Fu'an Inn, including one of our teammates. As a result, all 6 people died. And the deaths were consistent. According to previous soldiers, this kind of thing has happened many times. What’s really scary is that not a single person was left alive.”

"So it's useless for us to get together. This time it's not about one person. Once something happens, all of us may die. In this case, it might be better for everyone to separate. At least we don't have to worry about someone stabbing us in the back." Li Bai Very detailed explanation.

"Everyone, please pay more attention tonight. It looks like something will happen tonight, but I don't know where it will happen and who will die." When Jiang Cheng said this, what appeared in his mind was the Fu'an Inn that had been soaked by the flood. That strange flood took root in Jiang Cheng's heart.

According to Jiang Cheng's instructions, everyone takes turns to keep vigil tonight. He and Li Bai will keep watch on the first shift, and Yao, Shunyu and Fatty will keep watch on the second shift. Compared with Li Bai, Jiang Cheng believes in Yao, Shunyu and Li Bai. After all, Fatty once saved his life, and Yao, Shunyu and Yu recently saved his life. For a while, Jiang Cheng's feelings for Fatty were all visible.

The vigil was tense and boring, so Jiang Cheng had no choice but to chat with Li Bai. The first half of the night went very smoothly. The general didn't lie to them. This place was remote and the neighborhood was very quiet. After waking up Fatty and Li Bai, Jiang Cheng lay on the bed. He didn't want to sleep at first, he just wanted to take a short rest, but not long after, waves of sleepiness surged up, lapping his body like a wave. In a few breaths, Jiang Cheng fell into a deep sleep.

I don't know how long it took, Jiang Cheng suddenly woke up. With him, there were Yao, Shunyu, Fatty, and Li Bai. Fatty and Li Bai actually fell asleep too.

"What's going on?" Jiang Cheng got out of bed and came to Fatty's side. He knew that Fatty was not an unreliable person, and there was also Li Bai. There was no reason why they both fell asleep.

This reminded him of what happened last night. All of them were asleep. It seemed that this was most likely the rule of this world. At a certain moment, everyone would fall asleep.

Suddenly, Jiang Cheng looked at the ground, as if... it seemed as if the ground shook. No, it wasn't shaking, it was more like it was pushed by something.

The window outside the window was no longer calm at this moment, but the sound of wind and rain could be heard. Big raindrops slapped against the window, and there was the sound of whistling wind. The heavy rain finally came.

But slowly, everyone felt something was wrong. The sound of wind and rain... the sound of wind and rain seemed to be too intense, and the shaking feeling in the room became more intense.

At the same time, water continued to overflow along the cracks in the windows and the cracks in the floor. It was only a little at first, but as time went on, the water became larger and larger, and even tended to form a pool.

There was a constant "swishing" sound outside the window, like waves lapping against the embankment.

"What's going on?" The fat man was startled. The situation was becoming more and more chaotic. He had to hold on to the bed with his hands to prevent him from being shaken. "Is this an earthquake? We...what are we..."

Jiang Cheng rushed over and pushed open the window. The world outside was dark and shaking violently. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning passed by, and a vast ocean appeared in front of Jiang Cheng's eyes.
