Xu Cheng felt as if he had been confused by Xu Chi's words. He was in a trance for a moment. Just as he was about to say something, suddenly a familiar voice came from behind him through the air, which instantly restored his chaotic consciousness. Ching Ming.

"I think what you said is right. You can't make much money in the outside world, but it's fine here. I heard that the house is still allocated?" The voice of the boy wearing the Monkey King mask was clear and moist. , there seemed to be a faint smile in it, "Can you let me stay with you?"

The two brothers from the Xu family looked towards the hall at the same time. When they saw the two figures at the door, Xu Cheng's eyes lit up obviously, but Xu Chi's face on the other side suddenly sank.

Xu Cheng took half a step this way excitedly: "Master Ye!"

Ye Changsheng moved the Monkey King mask on his face to the top of his head, revealing most of his face.He glanced at Xu Cheng, then nodded at him solemnly, and said, "Master, my old grandson is here to save you."

Xu Cheng was taken aback for a moment, then remembered Ye Changsheng's exhortations to him before he left, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty for a moment, and apologized in a low voice: "Master Ye, I'm really sorry, I As soon as my brain got hot, I didn't have any scruples and walked out...I'm...causing you trouble again."

"Take people's money and eliminate disasters with others." Ye Changsheng shrugged his shoulders when he heard the apology on the other end, and said in a flat voice, "The customer is God, so God should be a little bit willful."

The expression on the other end was very calm, and the voice was not bullying. At first glance, it was impossible to tell whether he was angry or not, but Xu Cheng couldn't help but feel even more uneasy when he pondered in his heart: "Ye Tianshi, I'm not the one." Meaning, I..."

Xu Chi was by the side but couldn't bear the fact that Xu Cheng's cooked duck was about to fly like this, and said in a cold voice, "Brother, what do you mean? Don't you also think this is a good place? Why do you have to listen to this?" Instigation by two outsiders? I will put my words here, you only have two choices today, either you stay here with me, or—"

Xu Cheng was startled, and looked at Xu Chi with a complicated expression. Just as he was about to say something, Ye Changsheng, who was standing by the side, suddenly laughed.

His laughter was so abrupt that the conversation between the two brothers on the other end was temporarily interrupted, and they all turned their heads to look at him.Ye Changsheng waved his hand, and continued to laugh while apologizing: "Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you on purpose, but this joke is so funny that I couldn't help it."

He looked at Xu Chi, the smile on his face was bright, but the expression in his black eyes was cold: "Today is the once-in-ten-year carnival night, I thought you wanted to use us as a tribute to sacrifice , Didn't expect you to still want to let us go?"

After finishing speaking, he paused slightly, looked him up and down, and said, "Although other skills are not very good, but the art of illusion is proficient—eh, is it you who pulled Xu Chi here? ?”

Before Ye Changsheng finished speaking, Xu Cheng beside him understood what he meant, and his face changed several times in shock.

He looked sideways at the man who looked very gloomy and cold after Ye Changsheng finished speaking, but his eyebrows, eyes and body were the same as his brother's, and he opened his mouth in disbelief: "Ye, Ye Tianshi said what do you mean?"

Xu Chi's eyeballs moved, and he turned his body to Xu Cheng, his voice was very calm: "Brother, don't you see who I am, don't tell me, do you want someone else to remind you? He is just trying to provoke the relationship between our brothers." It’s just an outsider, do you believe him or me?”

Xu Cheng didn't make a sound, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and he turned his head to look at Ye Changsheng who was standing on the other side, with a struggling expression on his face.

Seeing his expression, Xu Chi sneered, turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, wait—" Xu Cheng looked at him like this, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab him.However, the moment his hand grabbed Xu Chi's clothes, the air seemed to be distorted by something suddenly, and in the blink of an eye, those two people disappeared so abruptly before his eyes.

The accident came unexpectedly, Ye Changsheng watched the two people disappear in the hall without warning, his originally lazy expression suddenly sank, he followed Xu Cheng's remaining aura and took a few steps outside the hall, looking around After looking at it, he frowned and murmured: "Oh no, I was careless."

He Jiuzhong spread his hands, a cluster of dark green flames jumped up from his palm, and licked towards the hall in front of him.

The moment the flame touched the building, the flame, which was no more than the size of a palm, suddenly jumped to a height of one foot, swallowing the entire building, and then burned it to ashes in just a moment.

And after all the ashes were blown away, a dark hole opened in the original hall.It was as if a corner of the elaborately crafted set had been burned, and through that corner, the people who had been trapped in the set could finally get a glimpse of the real scene outside the set.

"Their auras are still around, chasing them?" He Jiuzhong withdrew his hand, looked sideways at Ye Changsheng and asked.

Ye Changsheng looked at He Jiuzhong, who was standing beside him with a complicated expression, and looked extremely calm and composed, then turned his head to look at the gap he had abruptly opened from the illusion, and sighed from the bottom of his heart: "Sure enough, in the absolute In the face of the force value of , all the agencies are useless."

He Jiuzhong stopped: "Huh?"

Ye Changsheng waved his hand: "It's nothing, it's nothing. I mean, let's chase after him."

The moment Xu Cheng grabbed Xu Chi, he felt his whole body spinning for a while. When he regained consciousness, he and Xu Chi had walked out of the hall at some point and came to a remote forest path. .

The moonlight is quiet, and the wind blows on the body with an unstoppable coolness.

Looking at the desolate scenery around him, Xu Cheng finally realized that everything Ye Changsheng said should be true.He let go of Xu Chi's hand, staggered back two steps, suppressed the faster and faster heartbeat due to nervousness and facing the fear of the unknown, gritted his teeth and squeezed out the voice: "—What is your purpose? Where did you get Koike?"

The young man who had his back turned to him laughed softly. He turned around and looked straight at Xu Cheng.

The pupils are obviously dark brown, but at the moment they always look like they are emitting a kind of glistening green light.His face looked a little pale under the moonlight, and his smile was indescribably weird and stiff: "Brother, what are you talking about? I am Xiaochi."

Xu Cheng stared at him closely for a while, clenched his hands into fists, turned his head suddenly and ran in another direction.

Xu Chi stood still and didn't chase after him, but the sharp and ear-piercing laughter kept passing through the air, as if it could penetrate directly into his brain.

Xu Cheng didn't know where to go to meet Ye Changsheng and the others again, nor did he know where Xu Chi was.He ran in a panic for a while, running out from the deserted suburbs, when he looked up, he suddenly saw a little light.

He was both happy and suspicious, although he really needed a place to rest right now, but after the fake Xu Chi time just now, he didn't dare to get close to any crowd in this strange place now.

However, just as he was hesitating, a faint voice suddenly came from behind him: "Brother, brother... Where are you? Didn't you come here specially to find me... Hee hee, why are you running away now?"

Xu Cheng's face turned blue, feeling that the shouts seemed to be getting closer and closer to his direction, and his heart almost rose to his throat.Turning his head to look behind him at the dark, dark place, and then at the room with flickering lights not far in front of him, he gritted his teeth, walked over quickly and knocked on the door of the room.

The person who opened the door was a girl who was only thirteen or fourteen years old. She looked up at Xu Cheng with a hint of surprise on her face: "You..."

Seeing a little girl inside, Xu Cheng relaxed his guard a little. He was about to say something when he heard Xu Chi's yell mixed with strange laughter not far away. His expression changed, and he hurried towards the house first. Squeezing in, he slammed the door shut with a bang.

The little girl seemed to have been frightened by Xu Cheng, an uninvited visitor who seemed tall and burly. Her face turned pale, and her lips trembled slightly: "You, who are you?"

Xu Cheng looked at the little girl over there whose eyes were covered with tears and trembling all over his chest, and quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, don't cry, I'm not a bad person, I'm just hiding from that girl outside. It's just people... don't be afraid."

The little girl looked at him for a while, seemed to be convinced, and nodded: "Well, today is a carnival night, and there are many bad people outside. Come with me, uncle, the house here is special, as long as I don't open it from the inside , they can’t get in from the outside.”

Hearing this, Xu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and asked casually, "What is Carnival Night?"

"Carnival night is a day when everyone revels together. It only happens once in ten years." The little girl took him to the dining table and sat down, then poured him another glass of water, and asked softly, "Uncle, are you new?" Did you come in?"

Xu Cheng took the water over.

He is very thirsty now, he hasn't touched a drop of water all day, he ran vigorously for a while just now, and now his throat is about to smoke.Just about to take a sip to moisten his throat, but recalling Ye Changsheng's reminder before, he hesitated for a while before putting down the water.

He licked his chapped lips, and shook his head: "I'm just looking for someone, and I'll leave when I find someone." Looking at the little girl again, seeing that she was just at the age of junior high school, she couldn't help but say , "Are you also deceived by those people to come to this place? This is not a good place, your parents may be waiting for you to go home outside. Why don't you come with me?"

The little girl blinked, and an angel-like smile appeared on her tender face: "Uncle, what are you talking about? My home is here."

Xu Cheng looked at the little girl's innocent smiling face, and for some reason, a chill suddenly appeared behind him.

"you--"

Just as he was speaking, the girl had already crawled towards him along the dining table.The black pupils turned into a vertical line, and an extremely sharp knife appeared in her hand at some point.

She was grinning, and her snow-white sawtooth was as shocking as a piranha.When I spoke again, my voice suddenly became rough, like an old man over a hundred years old: "Uncle, I am really lucky. This year's carnival night, I can finally have a sacrifice by myself."

Her whole body was trembling slightly from the extreme excitement: "I haven't eaten for a long time."
