Nightmare Apostle

Kuang Hongyi sneered and stopped pretending. "Brother Chu, if you don't trust me, how can I trust you?"

Without being polite, Yang Xiao explained directly: "Brother Kuang, think about it. After all, I am a newcomer. Even if I can escape by chance by abandoning you tonight, I will die when I go back to face Shi Dali and Master Feng. I still weigh the importance of both."

This is clear. Kuang Hongyi also knows that if he and Su Tingting died tonight, and Yang Xiao was left alone, Shi Dali would never let him go, so Yang Xiao's only chance was to kill Shi Dali.

After thinking through all this, Kuang Hongyi no longer hesitated and bowed to Yang Xiao, "Okay, then I'll leave everything to you, brother Chu. After everyone leaves safely this time, I'll find a chance for you and me to talk about the mystery of this nightmare world. These nightmares come one after another. Even if you survive this time, if you don't understand anything, you may not be so lucky next time."

How could Yang Xiao not understand Kuang Hongyi's thoughts? Kuang Hongyi was hinting that he had important information in his hands, but he couldn't tell it now. He would tell him later. Of course, the premise of all this was that Yang Xiao wanted to help him survive tonight.

Without further ado, the two of them made a simple agreement and acted separately. Now time is tight. When the next drum sounded, they had to evacuate quickly, otherwise they would never be able to go back.

Yang Xiao rowed the boat towards the place where the paper boats were sparse, looking for flaws at the same time, while Kuang Hongyi turned his back to Yang Xiao and rowed in the opposite direction.

A gust of night wind blew, enveloping the nearby fog. Kuang Hongyi and Yang Xiao soon lost sight of each other. They could only vaguely see the outline of the big ship in the middle and the big red lantern hanging under the tall mast.

When it was almost time, Kuang Hongyi stopped the boat. The paper man boat was not far in front of him. The distance was already quite dangerous. He took a deep breath, pulled out the dagger and slashed it hard on the palm of his hand. The blade cut the skin and blood dripped into the lake.

Almost instantly, the paper man boats became agitated. The originally neat formation was broken and began to move towards Kuang Hongyi. What was even more weird was that the paper man actually slightly twisted the paper head with a terrifying face and pointed his face at Kuang Hongyi, as if locking the target.

The scene was so weird that it could not be described in words. The paper man sat or stood stiffly on the boat. Only his head was moving. The rest of the movement could not be seen at all, but the boat moved without wind.

Dare not hesitate, Kuang Hongyi's mission has been completed, the paper man has been attracted, the formation has been disrupted, now all he has to do is to escape.

Yang Xiao sat motionless on the boat, pretending to be a paper man, letting those paper man boats pass by him, he held his breath, straightened his back, and dared not even blink.

Fortunately, those paper man boats had a clear purpose, as if they could not see him at all, and they all sailed towards the direction where Kuang Hongyi was.

The first step of the plan has been completed, the paper man boats have been attracted, and he has now broken out of the encirclement. Yang Xiao turned the bow and chased those paper man boats without hesitation. He never planned to abandon his teammates, whether it was Kuang Hongyi or Su Tingting.

At this moment, in the cabin of the Boxi boat, Su Tingting was shivering alone. It was surprisingly cold here, as if it was a large refrigerator. What made her more worried than the cold was the handprints and ghost faces that appeared on her belly from time to time.

According to Yang Xiao, she found a copper incense burner in the middle of the cabin, with three dark red incense sticks inserted in it. The incense heads flickered and changed. When she got close, she could smell a strange fragrance.

Next to the incense burner, there was a copper mirror hanging with a red line. Judging from the material and the patterns on each body, the copper mirror and the incense burner seemed to be a pair.

The mirror surface of the copper mirror was not very clear, with a yellow texture. Su Tingting stared at herself in the copper mirror, and she felt more and more unfamiliar. She was so scared that she immediately looked away.

In addition, there were two paper figures in the cabin.

One red and one green paper figure, one male and one female. The male paper figure sat cross-legged behind the front cabin door, his hands flat on his knees, a red veil on his head, his back to Su Tingting, facing the cabin door, guarding, and his body was bigger and more sturdy than the paper figures Su Tingting had seen before.

There is a sword case inserted behind the male paper figure. Of course, this sword case is also made of paper, but the overall workmanship is very fine, and there is a golden sword tassel under the hilt for decoration.

The female paper figure is terrifying. She lies flat on a bed made of wooden boards, covered with a red wedding quilt. The cabin is decorated with lights and colors, and there are big "囍" characters on the wall. In the corner, there are a few small lanterns on thin bamboo poles. This place is completely arranged in the form of a wedding room.

Because there is a whole wall of red curtains hanging in between, Su Tingting can't see the face of the female paper figure, and she dare not get too close, but...but she can clearly see the high bulging belly of the female paper figure!

She doesn't know if there is any saying about paper figures being pregnant, but now her experience is so similar to this paper figure. She has a feeling that this paper figure is specially prepared for her.

But now that things have come to this, there is nothing to hesitate about. She forced herself to calm down, came to the incense burner, and remembered what Yang Xiao said. She first pressed the piece of paper with Shi Dali's birth date under the incense burner, and then blew gently at the leftmost of the three incense sticks. The incense head immediately became brighter and burned faster.

After blowing this breath, Su Tingting was alert to the surroundings, but she waited for more than ten seconds and did not find anything unusual. Gradually, her heart fell, and then she moved to the right and blew again at the rightmost incense stick.

"Hiss——"

As this breath was blown out, a gust of cold wind blew in the cabin for some reason, making her paper clothes rustle, the candlelight was lowered, and the cabin was flickering. At the same time, Su Tingting vaguely heard a very light "click" sound, like a piece of cardboard being stepped on and broken.

Su Tingting's first reaction was to look at the male paper figure. The male paper figure did not move and still maintained the previous posture. Then she looked at the female paper figure. The female paper figure also lay obediently on the wedding bed. The bright red wedding quilt was very dazzling.

The next second, Su Tingting couldn't help but stand up. She hugged herself and looked around, trying to find the source of the cold breath. Yes, just a moment ago, she felt that she was being stared at by something, and the hair on her back stood up. This was an instinct.

Where is it?

Exactly... Exactly where?

Su Tingting kept changing directions, and her eyes carefully searched every corner of the cabin, including the top of her head, but she found nothing, but she didn't dare to stop, because the feeling of being watched was getting stronger and stronger.

Until her peripheral vision accidentally swept across the bronze mirror beside the incense burner. In that instant, the image on it made her whole body turn cold.
