Nightmare Attack

"Brother Jiang. Reading." Huaiyi, who was hiding under the table, also came out. He came up and complained with Jiang Cheng and the fat man: "Damn, it was so dangerous just now. Fortunately, that guy has bad eyesight. It looked so straight to me." He walked straight over and thought he had found me."

"But this ghost is so strange. It looks scary, but other than that, there's nothing special about it." Huaiyi touched his chin, and seemed to have noticed something strange about the Burnt Ghost.

Jiang Cheng briefly told him about the hourglass. Huaiyi understood it well and said that it seemed that they were not the only ones who were restricted in the library.

This ghost is also very restricted.

Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps coming from the direction where the Burnt Ghost disappeared.

The footsteps sounded brisk, not like ghosts, but like people.

The people in Jiangcheng were not careless and immediately hid themselves separately until Shen Mengyun appeared.

Wang Qi Gaoyan was right behind her.

Seeing several people in Jiangcheng, Shen Mengyun spoke quickly: "The ghost walked around in a circle and went upstairs. Also, I saw before that the door to the second floor of the library was locked. Now open it." ” she added.

Jiang Cheng hesitated for a moment and then said immediately, "Let's go up too."

Now the situation is more obvious. This mission is similar to the medical building, which requires them to break through it layer by layer.

Go all the way to the 4th floor and find the missing Xiaohui and the burned borrowing office. The focus is on the book.

"And" looking at Jiang Cheng, Shen Mengyun's eyes were a little strange, as if he had something he hadn't figured out, "We also found a wooden sign next to the stairs leading to the second floor. "

Seeing Shen Mengyun's hesitant expression, Gao Yan came over and urged: "Don't wait, go over first and then talk. Go over and take a look, then everything will be clear."

The group of people ran towards the stairs.

The area inside the library is much larger than they imagined, and the structure is very strange. There are many corners and corners, and the field of vision is greatly restricted.

Two groups of people quickly exchanged information on the road. According to Shen Mengyun, the ghost with a burning smell also came to them, but because everyone hid it well, the ghost looked around and found no one, so he left again. .

Based on the information provided by Shen Mengyun, Jiang Cheng roughly restored the Scorched Ghost's action route in his mind.

It almost goes in a circle along the first floor of the library.

Judging from the search range alone, there are no obvious blind spots.

In other words, no place is necessarily safe.

Huaiyi thought for a moment and said, "Do you still remember the door where the ghost came out? If we hid near there from the beginning?"

Shen Mengyun paused, looked at him and asked, "You mean it's dark under the lamp?"

"Don't think about it." Wang Qi interrupted: "When the ghost comes out, it pauses in front of the door for the longest time. Do you think it is warming up or doing something?" "

Huaiyi recalled it for a while, and after a while, his face became embarrassed.

Wang Qi is right.

"That's right." Gao Yan tilted his head and said, "While we were hiding, we also found hourglasses. There were more than one hourglasses. There were some at regular intervals, and they were all placed in conspicuous positions."

Jiang Cheng nodded. It was easy to understand. It was just to make it easier for them to calculate time.

After the hourglass leaks light, it is time for the ghosts to leave, which also means that they have entered the next level and can go up to the next level.

When they came to the stairs Shen Mengyun mentioned, everyone saw the wooden sign.

There is a line of writing crookedly written in chalk on it: Anyone who passes through this place will get the first treasure just like the lord.

The words on it are the same as those on the blackboard behind the library door.

"The first treasure" Huaiyi thought for a moment. If he remembered correctly, it was something that could make those slaves disappear.

"Go upstairs first." At Jiang Cheng's suggestion, the group quickly arrived at the second floor of the library.

The layout here is different from that on the first floor. The layout is more compact, and the overall area seems smaller compared to the first floor.

This is not a good thing for Jiangcheng and the others.

After all, the smaller the area, the fewer places to hide, and the higher the risk of being caught by the Burnt Ghost.

The fat man had sharp eyes and spotted the hourglass standing on the middle floor of the bookshelf at a glance.

It was very similar to the one they had seen before.

"Don't go there yet." Gao Yan stopped everyone. After a moment, as if he had an idea, he slowly said: "Brother Jiang moved the hourglass before, and the hourglass turned upside down, which alerted the ghost."

"In other words, when the ghost appears, the initiative is in our hands."

"So what if we don't move the hourglasses this time?" Gao Yan became more and more enthusiastic as he spoke, "All the hourglasses won't move. We'll just stand here and not touch anything."

"Then the ghost won't appear. When the time is up, we can leave naturally."

Jiang Cheng looked at him with a look that showed concern for the mentally retarded. This old guy was so scared that he lost his mind. Otherwise, how could he come up with such a stupid idea.

"The method you mentioned may be feasible. We will not die for the time being, and we may even escape from the strange stories in the library safely." Jiang Cheng continued: "But have you ever thought about it, that means we will always be trapped in the library 2 floor, can’t reach the 4th floor.”

"If we can't reach the fourth floor, we can't find the borrowing desk, let alone Xiaohui and that crucial book!"

"We can go find the notebook." Gao Yan answered quickly. It seemed that he had thought of an escape route early in the morning. "We can go during the day, so we won't be targeted by the Heart-Corrupting Demon."

The two asked and answered each other, which was quite tit-for-tat.

At the critical moment of life and death, Gao Yan could no longer hide some of his emotions. He looked at Jiang Cheng with distrustful eyes, suspecting that he had hidden important clues and not made them public.

In the end, Wang Qi stood up and settled the controversy with just one sentence.

"Then you stay here." Wang Qi stepped forward and turned the hourglass upside down in front of everyone.

A few seconds later, as a "creak" sound came from not far away, the matter became a foregone conclusion.

Seeing the change in the situation, Gao Yan was also a person who could pick things up and put them down. He said with a smile: "I'm just talking and sharing my own opinions. Since you don't agree, just treat it as if I didn't say it. Next, We still need to help each other.”

"It's coming out." Huaiyi stared at the direction of the sound and whispered.

With the experience last time, everyone naturally dispersed this time. Gao Yan turned around and ran into the depths of the library.

Shen Mengyun and Wang Qi also disappeared.

"We are also spread out." Jiang Cheng paused, "The distance is further apart than last time."

"The space here is too small to hide three people." Huaiyi looked around and quickly returned, with a hint of anxiety in his tone.

Jiang Cheng thought for a few seconds, then turned to Huaiyi and Fatty and said, "Don't stay here. Go inside with them and find a hidden place to hide."
