A Midnight Escape Story for Farmers

Chapter 28 Ghost in the Mirror

In the end, the players had to pull up the catnip tree that the kitten couldn't put it down, and then they were able to take the cat and the mint away together.

Fang Shiqing quickly picked a little of every kind of plant in the yard, and then the three planned to go back to the house.

Although an enemy suspected of being the "ghost in the mirror" was successfully eliminated, everyone knew that it was at most just a clone created by it.The real BOSS body is probably still hiding in the mirror, and new clones may be sent out at any time to attack them.

"According to what it means, You Qingyu seems to have been captured. But unlike what was predicted in the notebook, it didn't directly kill her and end the copy. Maybe we still have time to save her."

"But I don't know why, she seems to be catching us too? Let's not go in before saving people," He Xiangwu said as he pushed the door open, "Zhao Jun has shown his face twice in a while, why not?" One is true; that Gu Jinhong... I don't know where, could they have been arrested?"

Fang Shiqing said worriedly: "I don't know, let's just say, I don't know what's going on with Mr. Xiao, maybe he will also be—"

After opening the door, he held the cat and walked in first.When I entered the living room and looked up, I suddenly lost my voice.

At some point in the living room, an extra person appeared, stepping on the broken glass all over the floor, picking up a few pieces of mirrors and inspecting them.It seemed that when they heard the sound of their door opening, the other party turned around and faced Fang Shiqing head-on.

——Coincidentally, it was the Xiao Fengdi he just mentioned.

"you--"

Xiao Fengdi stood up suddenly, looking at him with flickering eyes.

"What's the matter...Wow!" He Xiangwu poked his head from behind, and jumped back outside the porch in fright, almost stepping on Zeng Xin behind him.

He hurriedly lowered his voice: "Is it real or fake this time?"

"I, I don't know about that either," Fang Shiqing was thinking desperately in his mind how to initiate a temptation naturally, "Here, I have to try it out—"

"—then try it."

While still struggling, the other party let out a sigh of relief, then naturally approached, stretched out his hand and said.

The clothes all over his body were wrinkled, and there was a conspicuous wound on his body. He looked very weak and tired.However, apart from the mood swings at the first glance, his attitude is still calm and composed, but there is a gloomy look between his brows and eyes.

"Ah... oh."

Fang Shiqing touched the other person's palm, and his fingertips immediately felt the warmth of a human being.

His gaze naturally fell on the rolled flesh of the opponent's wound.This scar should not have been made by the "ghost in the mirror", but the other party cut it himself in order to get blood; speaking of it, this boss is really cruel to him.

The two people in the back shrank in the hallway, looking out tremblingly.

"Is it hot or ice? Don't just touch it all the time, talk instead." He Xiangwu couldn't help urging.

Xiao Fengdi withdrew his hand all of a sudden, pursed his lips, and said nothing.

"It's hot, it's me and me. Boss, are you okay?"

Fang Shiqing came to his senses and hurriedly pushed him through the door. At the same time, he dug in the item bar, took out two bottles of hemostatic agent, and poured them all over him.

"Also, that, You Qingyu...she..."

Hearing You Qingyu's name, Xiao Fengdi's face suddenly became more gloomy, and he said in silence for a moment: "She was pulled into the mirror. I couldn't save her in time."

Although he had already guessed it before, the fact confirmed by him is obviously more weighty.

Zeng Xin who was following behind burst into tears when she heard the words.But while she was crying, she didn't forget to use the stick in her hand—the stick she used to beat people before, to prop up the door from the inside, so as to prevent any fake monsters from running in from outside.

After sealing the door, the atmosphere in the living room finally calmed down.

The couch is very spacious, and four people can easily sit on it. Fang Shiqing found a duster and wiped away the wine bottle splatter on it, and they sat down for three.

"Speaking of which, you—no need, my health is almost full—are you okay?" Xiao Fengdi pushed away the third bottle of medicine that Fang Shiqing took out, and asked, "At that time, when I went upstairs When I went to see it, you had disappeared. Have you been caught by a ghost?"

Those arms tried to catch Xiao Fengdi at first, but they probably realized that he was not easy to deal with, so they just dragged You Qingyu back.After capturing You Qingyu, they disappeared completely, as if they had never appeared.

And when Xiao Fengdi went back to find Fang Shiqing, he only saw long bloodstains on the second floor——

That picture is quite scary, and anyone who sees it will think of the scene of dragging the corpse.

"Also," he looked at the large shattered mirror over there, "...what's going on with that?"

Fang Shiqing explained his subsequent experience in detail.

When mentioning that Zeng Xin smashed the mirror with a punch, Xiao Fengdi's calm face also had cracks.

"I, I'm not like this in reality," Zeng Xin explained timidly, her face flushed, "It was in the game that I suddenly became very strong... Don't get me wrong."

She should have a crush on Xiao Fengdi, so she worked hard to maintain her image in front of him.

"Strength is not a bad thing."

He shook his head and said lightly, while looking down at his hands.

Although there was still no expression on his face, Fang Shiqing felt that he could guess what he was thinking.

——If, when You Qingyu was pulled into the mirror, if he could smash the mirror like Zeng Xin, would he be able to save people?

However, not to mention that normal people don't have Zeng Xin's strength, it's not easy to jump over those arms and hit the mirror just with the posture of flying arms all over the sky at that time.In the end, it wasn't anyone's fault.

He changed the subject and asked, "Boss, did you go through other scenes before, did you find any clues?"

"No." Xiao Fengdi's negative emotions were just swept away, "After that, all the places I passed were very quiet, not even ghosts. Oh..." He looked at Fang Shiqing, suddenly remembered something, "However, in the last scene, a lot of cabbage grew in the yard."

"Chinese cabbage?"

"The kind you eat with stir-fried vegetables?"

He Xiangwu and Zeng Xin looked at each other.

Why is there cabbage here?

... Although there are even watermelon flowers, gourd vines and the like outside, long cabbage doesn't seem strange.

"Then did you pull out a tree or two and bring them here?" Fang Shiqing's eyes lit up, and he asked immediately.

"..." The other party looked at him.

"I'm sorry." Fang Shiqing sat down silently.He knew that Xiao Fengdi's item bar only had two pitiful spaces, and there was no space for medicines, let alone carrying crops.

"Well, buddy, cabbage is not a rare thing anyway, it's gone if you don't have it." He Xiangwu patted him on the shoulder.

Fang Shiqing was somewhat disappointed.In reality, cabbage is not rare, but he noticed before that there are no cabbage seeds for sale in this small town, and there are no rape flowers and gourds he picked up from the yard before—that is to say, the Most of these crops are rare crops.

If you can collect more, it may be very beneficial for future development.

But anyway, I have already missed it, and there is no way to go back to get it, so there is no point in entanglement.Moreover, collecting is a matter of convenience, more important than not being able to push the boss and saving teammates, so he just lost his emotions for a moment, and put aside his emotions.

"Well, it's gone, since there are no new clues, the next step is to continue to search for teleportation... point..."

I saw Xiao Fengdi reaching into his pocket to feel for it. Although he didn't find any cabbage, he found a handful of seeds.

"I really want to pull it out," he handed the seeds to Fang Shiqing, "but this season the cabbage flowers are all withered, and only the seeds are left to be picked."

The seeds in his hands were still moist, apparently they had just been picked not too long ago.

"——Thank you, boss! You are such a good person, boss!"

The so-called resurgence of mountains and rivers and bright willows and flowers are nothing more than that, Fang Shiqing can't wait to go up and kiss him.The other party immediately looked away and stood up. He didn't know if it was simply embarrassment, or he felt that this matter was too embarrassing.

"Let's go," he stood up as if trying to cover up something, "The teleportation point for this scene is in the attic."

"Uh, Brother Xiao..." He Xiangwu seemed to want to call his name directly, but turned a corner as soon as the words came out, "How do you know?"

Xiao Fengdi glanced at him, but did not object to this blunt title.

"I saw it when I was passing by."

There are two bronze mirrors in the attic, Xiao Fengdi came to this scene through one of them, and the other happens to be the teleportation point to leave.

Now there were four people acting together. After all of them climbed the stairs, the attic seemed a bit crowded.

Of the two mirrors, the one on the left can no longer reflect anything, while the one on the right has ripples like the surface of water, obviously becoming a teleportation point.

"I'll go there first," Xiao Fengdi asked again, holding the frame of the mirror, "Help me give it a push."

Fang Shiqing responded, thought for a while, and suddenly pulled his shirt away.

As expected, Xiao Fengdi was taken aback. The next moment, he saw the cat in his hand being stuffed into his arms.

"..."

"That ghost in the mirror seems to be afraid of cats," Fang Shiqing said solemnly while helping him to straighten his clothes again, "Boss, since you are leading the battle, it is safer to carry a cat with you."

Xiao Hua just ate the catnip in her arms, looked like a perfect cat, and didn't respond to the fact that she was given to someone else -- besides, strictly speaking, Xiao Fengdi was its owner...

Xiao Fengdi froze and didn't speak for a long time.Fang Shiqing thought he still had the shadow of being scratched by the cat before, so he hurriedly added: "It's okay, Xiaohua only has her catnip in her eyes now, she must not scratch anyone... Boss, what's wrong with you?"

"……fine."

When he finally spoke, his tone was also very stiff, not like "it's okay" at all.

Fang Shiqing didn't know why for a while.

Through the mirror surface of this one-way transmission point, you can see the situation within a certain range on the other side.However, the copper mirror is far more distorted than ordinary mirrors, and the surface is full of ripples, so only the approximate shape can be vaguely recognized.

When Xiao Fengdi landed on the opposite side, he seemed to stop for some reason, as if he was attracted by something on the opposite side.

Fang Shiqing grabbed his arm from behind, and it took several seconds before he made a move and pulled the person behind him with all his strength.

After the familiar sticky squeeze, Fang Shiqing plunged out of the mirror.He took a breath, looked up and looked around, and then froze for a moment.
