Nightmare Attack

Chapter 897 Flaw

Looking at this wooden box, everyone felt an indescribable awkwardness. Google search reading

Finally, Gongsun Zhiruo stepped forward and carefully opened the cover of the box.

After seeing clearly what was inside, everyone let out a long breath.

It was a prayer wheel. It was far less gorgeous than the ones Jiang Cheng saw on the bus. The workmanship and material were very ordinary.

"What's the purpose of putting a prayer wheel here?" Huaiyi asked confused.

"I once heard a saying that places like intersections and lakeside can easily attract some bad things." Jiang Cheng stared at the prayer wheel in the wooden box and said thoughtfully.

Han Juanjuan was stunned for a moment and asked in an uncertain tone: "What will it cause?"

Jiang Cheng tilted his head and glanced at him, and replied simply: "Ghost."

"ghost?"

"Yes, it is said that ghosts will disguise themselves as humans, or simply kill a person and control the corpse to participate in such sacrificial activities. If they are not discovered during the entire activity, then it will be acquiesced that it has this opportunity, and it will be possible in the future. Continue living as this person." Jiang Cheng explained in detail.

Hearing this, Zhou Yuxuan was thoughtful, and later said: "Similar statements are somewhat similar to the Huangpizi asking for a title that is circulated over there."

"But Mr. Jiang, what does this have to do with prayer wheels?" Bai Xi asked. He rarely spoke, but every word he said was on point.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Cheng looked around and said, "If I guess correctly, this prayer wheel is placed here to prevent ghosts from sneaking in."

"Before each event, all participants must walk to the wooden box one by one and turn the prayer wheel under everyone's gaze."

"If it's a human being, there's no problem, but if it's not, there will be flaws."

It is undeniable that in addition to being well-informed, Jiang Cheng also has a talent for telling stories. He successfully aroused the curiosity of everyone present. Even Huaiyi looked at him expectantly.

"What flaws will be exposed?" Han Juanjuan swallowed and couldn't help but urge.

Jiang Cheng looked at him and said calmly: "The prayer wheel must rotate clockwise, but those things can't do it. If they pick up the prayer wheel, the prayer wheel will turn counterclockwise."

Staring at the prayer wheel in the wooden box, the scene described by Jiang Cheng came to mind, and everyone couldn't help but feel a terrifying and weird feeling.

"Of course, these are all what I heard. As for whether this is the case, I can't be sure." Jiang Cheng finally said.

But even if he said this, the scene in front of them still made everyone believe that this should be what this man said.

After a moment of silence, Gongsun Zhiruo finally spoke up and said that this place was too evil and it was better to stay away. His suggestion was unanimously agreed upon by everyone.

They didn't go too far, and after a short circle, they came back. When passing by a low shack, everyone stopped. In front of the shack, a door-like curtain was built with rags, and through the gap on the side Look, it's pitch black inside.

"How strange." Zhou Yuxuan said: "We didn't see many people along the way. This is a village after all. It can't be just this small number of people. Where did the rest of the people go?"

Hearing this, Han Juanjuan's face turned pale and he murmured in a low voice, "No... they couldn't have all been dragged away by that starving ghost."

"Don't talk nonsense." Gongsun Zhiruo immediately interrupted and said that he was the leader among their group. The mission had not officially started yet, and he did not want to disturb the morale of the army with some baseless speculations.

"Just go and see if it's nonsense." Jiang Cheng looked indifferent. After all, there are some things that you have to know sooner or later. If you know earlier, you can prepare earlier.

Seeing that Jiang Cheng was planning to walk over, Gongsun Zhiruo signaled the remaining people to stay where they were while he and Jiang Cheng went over to check.

The two of them walked towards the shack, one on the left and the other on the right. The closer they got, the more they could feel the dilapidation and backwardness of the village.

Not all the rags used to build this shack were rags, but there were also a few pieces of animal skins. Because of the age, there were still some mottled hairs on them, which was very strange.

Standing in front of the "door" of the shack, there was no sound at all. Gongsun Zhiruo breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that no one was there. Maybe the shack had been abandoned a long time ago.

Jiang Cheng stretched out his hand and slowly opened the curtain, but the scene that appeared immediately made his hand freeze in the air, and Gongsun Zhiruo, who had just taken a breath, turned pale.

There was a man sitting in the shack, his face facing the direction of the door.

He was an old man, at least he looked that way. He was wrapped in tattered clothes, and his exposed skin was a strange gray-white color. He was also extremely thin, with only a layer of skin wrapped around the bones.

The old man closed his eyes tightly, with a haggard face and sunken eye sockets. He sat cross-legged on the ground, motionless.

Gongsun Zhiruo immediately realized that the old man was dead.

This is a corpse!

A terrifying idea instantly formed in his mind. There were at least dozens of shacks nearby. Could it be that there was... a corpse in each shack?

What is going on here?

Jiang Cheng hesitated for a moment, but in the end he did not choose to touch the strange-looking corpse. Just when he put down the curtain and was about to leave, he inadvertently stepped on a stone under his feet.

When Jiang Cheng looked down, Gongsun Zhiruo on the side suddenly shouted. When Jiang Cheng reacted, the old man's body, which had been sitting upright just now, actually opened his eyes, half climbed up, and stretched out his withered arms to grab him. Come.

Jiang Cheng immediately stepped back, picked up Gongsun Zhiruo and ran away.

The remaining people ran over when they heard the cry, and Jiang Cheng stopped when they realized that the old man hadn't chased him.

Looking back, I found the old man standing in front of the shack door, staring at them with a pair of cloudy eyes. At the same time, he was yelling something angrily in a language they didn't understand. You didn't need to guess. Scold them.

Not long after, more and more locals came over, and Jiang Cheng and the others escaped first.

The good news is that the old man is not dead, he is alive.

After walking far away, Jiang Cheng secretly looked back and found the old man standing alone in front of the shack door, with his head lowered and staring at the ground. Jiang Cheng suddenly felt a strange feeling. He smelled fear from the old man's body, and It's an indescribable fear.

Worried about causing any more trouble, the group slipped back into the big tent from which they started.

After walking around for a while, they confirmed that this tent was definitely at the level of a super-luxury presidential suite in the village, and they didn't know how Shang Mo got it.

The fat man got along very well with the three women. When Jiang Cheng and the others opened the curtain and came in, the fat man had his back to them, dancing and talking to the three women, making the three women cover their mouths and giggle. Stop, I didn’t know, I thought they were traveling in a group.
