cross night

Compared with the trepidation and hardships of the Shiye trio, Zheng Zha's life can only be described as leisurely.

Eat well in the morning and sleep well, go to the temple to listen to lectures, and get N pieces of valuable treasures.The two exorcists that Connor found were very authentic, and they introduced many masters in the industry.The house of the coconut palm is a famous "haunted house" in the spirit world, but there is no fixed commission, and it has been shelved.Now that someone is suffering and paying money, of course we can't sit idly by.

Hearing that Chu Xuan and the others had been haunted by a curse, the two looked very cautious, sprinkled some clean water, and gave each of them a handful of exorcism incense. Among them, Yumi, the female spirit exorcist, said: "Once you are haunted by a grudge, In fact, it will not stop being harassed until its main soul or source of power is eliminated, we will make some preliminary arrangements, and the official transcendence will begin in about three days. During this period, it is best for you to stay in the temple and not go out."

These words were spoken to Chu Xuan in private, and he naturally did not accept them.

A phone call at noon and ten nights made it logical for him to sound the alarm to the team members and start his own plan.

So Zheng Zha held a piece of paper full of addresses and said, "Screaming Studio, Horror Elevator, Ten Haunted Houses... What are these?"

Chu Xuan pushed his glasses, and the ghost mode was fully turned on: "The place you are going to visit."

The protest was invalid, and he was escorted to an elevator with a big red cross on it and marked "Danger! Under repair!" With a look of death on his face, he bid farewell to the team members with affectionate eyes.Connor next to him opened the abandoned haunted elevator and said, "You can go in now."

"Let me take another look..."

"Go." Chu Xuan gracefully pushed Zheng Zha, who was still struggling, into the elevator.

"Ahhh-"

The horrific screams made the Zhongzhou team members who stood still shudder. Some chanted sutras and some made the sign of the cross, praying for their captain.

The surveillance screen showed that Zheng Zha was in good condition and was fighting with a female ghost in red.Although he was extremely frightened, his moves were rude: punching, stomping, pulling hair, biting people... and suddenly the small universe burst into the second level of gene lock, his muscles soared, and he climbed up the steel bar without even using a rope.

Kang Nuo looked contemptuously at Zheng Zha, who was lying on the elevator door, panting, with the female ghost hanging on his waist, and kicked: "Come up before defeating the enemy."

"Wow - I want to sue Shiye!" Zheng Zha's mournful cry was even more mournful than a real ghost cry.

Facts have proved that people need pressure, especially the type who grew up in adversity like Zheng Zha. When he came out, his legs were shaking and his eyes were dazed. He looked overly frightened, but he held the ferocious head of the female ghost as a sign of victory.

"Hahaha..." He panted and laughed, a little hysterical, "I don't believe that the coconut palm is more difficult than this woman!"

"The Buddhist bead has been completely eroded." Chu Xuan noticed the scorched black and deformed rosary beads on his chest, thoughtfully, "So the red-clothed ghost is really powerful?"

I watched the captain's actual performance on the spot, and it was the team members' turn to perform, and they were locked into the screaming studio to experience supernatural events.Zhan Lan showed the side of a female Zhuge, commanding calmly, using abilities to cover, and cooperating.

That night, Chu Xuan sat in the suite and played on the computer, analyzing the information collected during the day.Boring, Zheng Zha hit wine bottles with skull bowling balls behind him, and stripped off rosary beads to use as marbles.

The rooms are allocated as follows: Kang Nuo asked for a separate room; Zhang Jie, Zero Point, Zhang Heng and Qi Teng shared a room; Zhan Lan and Kara shared a room; Zhongzhou team's think tank and captain shared a room.

Chu Xuan was not in a relaxed mood. He had never watched a non-logical ghost movie, and after watching it in the Lord God Space, he also felt a sense of powerlessness for no reason.He can explore the most complicated genetic mysteries, analyze Zheng Zha's tactical report today and make the most reasonable guidance, but he cannot predict the actions of ghosts, no matter how sufficient the materials he has to judge.A slight error may lead to group destruction.This vague pressure is like the formation of a grieving ghost, which is absurd and unreasonable.

One has rationality and data, and the other emotional decision exists.

Just like Fei Juya's evolution.

Fingers stopped on the keyboard, Chu Xuan was slightly startled.Zheng Zha had been playing alone for a long time, and he was already suffocated to death. He couldn't help but talk to him: "Chu Xuan, do you have any wishes?"

"Wish?" Chu Xuan turned his head, "If you mean the plan, I hope we can get through this horror film without too many casualties. The best case is more than 2/3 people, although the probability is very small." Zheng The corner of Zha's mouth twitched, as dull as he was, and he knew that the other party didn't understand the point.

"It's not the plan... it's after we leave the world of horror movies. I want to travel the world with Lil to see the aurora in the polar regions; cross the Pacific on a tanker and count the stars lying on deck at night; then go to Easter Island to see Giant stone statues, thinking about the unknown secrets of human beings; going to the Scottish grasslands to listen to the melodious bagpipes, and feeling like floating in the clouds; going to the broken wall of Greece, mourning the glorious civilization that passed away in ancient times; finally, we returned to the Great Wall and walked up to Badaling hand in hand ...Live! No matter what, I want to live!" Speaking of emotion, Zheng Zha's eyes flashed with longing, and turned into determination again.

Chu Xuan listened silently. This emotion was still unfamiliar to him. He just said: "Then you have to improve your strength. Your current mentality and ability... are far from enough in horror movies!"

"Hehe, I know." Zheng Zha shrugged, still optimistic, "But I have you, Toya, and all of us, we will definitely be able to live together!"

Chu Xuan could only shake his head inwardly for such an argument without theoretical basis, but Zheng Zha's unadulterated desire to survive did play a decisive role in his evolution, so he had to acquiesce to such a simple-minded optimist.

After talking for a while, Zheng Zha suddenly became intimate with the military adviser, and began to show his cock-wife enthusiasm: "Chu Xuan, stop beating, go to bed early. No, let's drink together... Oh, here is a bottle of beer." He opened the In the refrigerator, I saw a bottle of Japanese light beer.

"That bottle won't work." Chu Xuan raised his head suddenly and said in a voice that surprised him.Zheng Zha was puzzled: "Why? Has it expired?" Chu Xuan himself didn't understand the reason, but just remembered that the man said with a smile before leaving, "I hope I come back in three days, and I can drink with you alive." His words were not affected. He blurted out in control: "This bottle won't work."

"Oh." Zheng Zha wasn't angry either. He was a patriotic young man and didn't want to drink Japanese products, so he was going to ask the counter to deliver two bottles of Chinese Moutai.

The moon is like an old coin in the dense mist. The air is humid and hot, as if there is a strange fishy smell blowing from the river along the wind, and the melodious sound of reed flute is heard in the distance, and the curling music is floating in the empty sky.

Ten nights stood alone by the river, the hem of his black clothes and the frosty white reed flowers rippling in the wind.

In his eyes, the night is not dull black, but a soft purple mist, and all the scenery is glowing with a rose-colored halo. The winding mountains in the distance and the reed fields swaying intoxicating waves are like The condensed lavender snow is shining brightly.

This is the unique dark vision of the blood race, which is the same as his ability.The previous life was safe but weak, and this life is strong but dangerous. When God closes a door, he will open a window for you.

He admits that he does not complain about others, and is also fascinated by such beautiful scenery, but...

"Where is this—"

The boy's wailing startled several perching birds.

Venting his anger, he slapped the blades of grass with his saber, and ten nights tried to recall: he, Ying Kong and Ming Yanwei came to Atsuta Shrine, and then he seemed to hold the hilt of Kusanagi Sword, and then his eyes went dark, and when he came back to his senses, he was gone. it's here.

...how long has passed?Looking at the sky, his heart sank, even though he knew it might be an illusion, he couldn't relax.

Walking along the river, Toya didn't look at his stupid samurai costume, and said in his heart: Yamata no Orochi, Yamata no Orochi, come out!

Not long after, he saw a figure, not Yamata no Orochi, but a very beautiful woman...or a girl?

She was wearing an ancient kimono-like dress, standing by the river in a daze.

"Sakura!" Seeing that person's face clearly, Toya yelled loudly, ran over and grabbed her shoulder, "What are you doing here?"

"Me?" Zhao Yingkong's eyes were confused, as if he still couldn't recognize the other party, "I was waiting for Yamata no Orochi, and my father said I was a sacrificial offering."

"Go to his sacrifice! Wake up! I am Toya! Your companion!"

Hearing the word "companion", Zhao Yingkong was startled, and a sharp light shot out of his eyes: "Ten Ye!" The black-haired boy was overjoyed, and hugged her excitedly: "Hahaha, that's great, you didn't become demented, Damn! Which guy put on such a stupid scene?" He didn't want to be Susanoo's hero to save the beauty.

At this time, the earth shook, and a pair of giant blood-red eyes appeared in the darkness, and Yamata no Orochi appeared majestically.It's a pity that one of the men and women watching it took off their hairpins to make a dagger; the other reached out and took out a set of golden holy clothes out of thin air, and put them on in an instant.

"Hmph, since it's the spiritual world, I want to see who is stronger in our small universe."

Toya who completed the cosplay clenched his fist violently.

In the dream, he beat the stinky snake, and woke up in a relaxed and happy state, and Shiye heard Ming Yanwei's joyful cry: "You are finally awake!"

Zhao Yingkong jumped up from beside him, holding the Fang of Underworld Fire tightly.The bright sunlight shone down, and Toya rubbed his eyes in a daze.

"Break the dream of Yamata no Orochi, the entity of Yamata no Orochi is about to wake up, kill Yamata no Orochi, get the A-level horror branch plot twice, and reward [-] points. If you fail to kill it within one day, all participants will be wiped out." Mission personnel. Technology weapons disabled, start immediately."

Since entering the world of horror films, Toya has never had this moment of panic. He is very aware of his abilities. A double-C-level branch plot made him win so hard. It can also be said that it was luck that won-double A-level !How can he?

Tech weapons are also banned!His only most aggressive and confident skill is gone!

Shiye looked at the two companions, Ming Yanwei didn't understand the seriousness of the matter, her expression didn't change.Zhao Yingkong's eyes showed awe-inspiring expression, but she straightened her back silently.

Yes.The vampire boy took out the bolt gun from the earrings and held it, ignoring the intense numbness that spread from his palm to his whole body: Even if there is no hope of winning, he still has to fight.

As if echoing his fighting spirit, the air changed, and a huge snake with a length of [-] meters appeared, with eight red eyes and blue scales.Its huge body crushed countless buildings, and the screams of people were inaudible amidst the roar of gravel.Amidst the cloud of smoke and dust, the three fled quickly.

"Ying Kong, you are in charge of the sneak attack; I will draw its attention; Ming Yanwei, find a sniper spot." The boy flew up with his boots and got under the head of a snake. The crazy biting of the other seven poems quickly moved away.

Yamata no Orochi chased after him angrily, and the boy's last request came from the blue sky: "Don't attack at will! You only have one chance to hit!"

Ming Yanwei has not been strengthened, once shooting arrows arouses Yamata no Orochi's killing intent, there is no way to escape!

The anxiety in Shiya's heart came straight up. It was a sneak attack just now. At this moment, he couldn't hurt Yamata no Orochi at all, and he tried his best just to dodge its bite.The speed of this snake was astonishingly fast, and Bashou's stretching and swimming were extremely flexible, and it was almost bitten several times.

damn it!Desperately put away the bolt gun, put the heavy machine gun on the young man's thin shoulders, and focused the beating infrared window on his black goggles: I don't believe this evil!

boom!The silver-white spiritual cannonball hit a light green barrier and fell slumped.Shiye was stunned, pulled away with a wry smile, and rang the headset: "Hey, Chu Xuan, can you hear me?"

In the quiet night, the senior turned over and sat up, and glanced at the captain who was sleeping soundly on the other bed, his expression was so calm that he didn't look like someone who was woken up in the middle of the night: "What's the matter?"

"I'm sorry... I'm in trouble." For some reason, hearing this indifferent voice, Toya felt relieved somewhere in his heart, "I triggered a double-A plot, and the situation is very bad now. I have been banned from technological weapons, Yingkong and Mingyanwei are very dangerous."

"Who is the enemy?" Chu Xuan remained calm and pointed at the core of the problem, "Have you used your blood skills?"

"Eh, I..." Shiye woke up like a dream, faintly feeling that something was wrong, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhao Yingkong jumping off a dangerous building and running up from the snake's back, the sword in his hand was shining brightly.

"Ah—" He rushed over, and Shiye was so anxious that his heart was fried, and the energy of the blood clan instantly condensed into a giant sword about two meters long, and chopped off the head of the nearest snake.The painful Yamata no Orochi didn't turn to him as he hoped, and howled and swayed.

Zhao Yingkong also worked desperately, inserted the fangs of the underworld fire deeply into the snake scales, stabilized herself on the huge body that was shaking like the earth, dug into the blood hole without saying a word, bit her lip and climbed up, the dagger pierced continuously. hit.

Shiye squeezed out the last ounce of blood energy, and chopped off the heads of two snakes, so tired that his ears rang and his eyes were dizzy.Under their joint attack, the Yamata no Orochi turned over in a blaze of flames. Although Zhao Yingkong jumped away in time, he was still crushed. The dust was flying, and the horrible vibration sound was mixed with insignificant soft noises. Even the shape of the corpse could not be distinguished. The bloody mud that came out appeared in front of the young man's eyes, turning into heart-piercing pain.

"Do not!!!!"

Whoosh!When Shiye was absent-minded, a silver arrow pierced through the head of the snake biting him, exploding stunning bloody flowers.Yamata no Orochi reacted much faster than him, and rushed towards Ming Yanwei who was attacking with a flick of his tail.

"Come back to me!" Toya roared and rushed towards Yamata no Orochi. Blood flames rose from his whole body, burning through the solid snake scales. Constantly bombarding downwards, causing blood to fly, not caring about the severe pain that was about to drive him mad, what dominates him at this moment is even crazier emotions, grief and killing intent.

His blood energy has been exhausted, and he is fighting for his life with vigor, so it is also a way of fighting regardless of life and death.

What woke him up was an exclamation, very small, but Ming Yanwei still couldn't dodge it, was hit by the body of the snake, flew upside down tens of meters, fell heavily into the ruins, and stirred up a large cloud of dust and smoke.

"..." The young man who rolled down from the snake's back was cold and unable to move. It was not until he heard the unclear signal of the communicator that a faint light burst out from his slack eyes, and he flew with the little strength left. stand up.

"Chu Xuan, Ying Kong and Ming Yanwei are dead..." His voice was hoarse, Shiye couldn't help shaking, he hugged himself unconsciously, "They are dead..."

There was a subtle pause in Chu Xuan's reply: "Really, then my guess is correct."

The biting snake's sharp teeth flickered, but it didn't have the stench it should have.The young man dodged indifferently, and there was no spark of clarity in his mind: "What guess?"

"You are fighting alone now, the energy of the blood race is probably exhausted, and you remember that this is a double A-level mission, so you think you can't win?"

"I..." Toya's thoughts were completely occupied by "Double A Level".

The male voice that came into my mind was very cold, steady and powerful: "I see, it's no wonder you are trapped in this illusion. Is this the limitation of a person with spiritual power? The backside of strength is weakness and hesitation. Because of belief, success is achieved. Similarly, crippled by doubt."

"What are you talking about?" The mist covered the body and mind, Toya shook his head, many fragments of memories emerged from the bottom of his heart, making him fall into the nightmare of the past and the present, "I don't believe, don't believe that I can win, don't believe that I It can be cured, this is a lie... No matter how much you deceive and encourage yourself-I know myself! I will not look down on myself! I have never escaped, no matter what treatment method I am willing to try, but no- ——I’m still dead! I can’t do double-A plots! I know! In this world, you can’t overcome everything without the will to survive! Death will definitely come! No matter how much you don’t want to die, no matter how much you struggle, you won’t be able to escape!”

"So you gave up?"

After ten nights of shock, the broken light in his eyes regrouped.

"No." He heard his own answer, clear and firm, "Whether death will come in the next moment or not, I will not give up."

As if a layer of confusion had been torn apart, Toya blinked and saw the Yamata no Orochi not far away, two bloody corpses—still the same, but he could feel that his thinking was unusually clear, and many things he had overlooked before All doubts emerged.

This is an illusion?He thought he had cracked Yamata no Orochi's dream, but it was still in its dream?

In reality, Zhao Yingkong and Ming Yanwei didn't die?

To prove, the only way to break this illusion is to overcome the deepest fear in his heart, the powerlessness of death and fate.

The sharp and dark gun barrel was carried on the shoulder again, loaded and aimed precisely, Toya felt his heart was like a mirror, and the crosshairs in the black pupils were as calm as the reflection of the lake in his heart.

"If you were my illusion, why would you say these things to me?"

On the other side of consciousness, Chu Xuan calmly pushed his glasses:

"Probably in your mind, I am undefeated."

The heart barrier perished in the artillery fire.

The morning sun spreads softly, extending through the gaps in the curtains, and the light and shadow climb onto the bed in the guest room overlapping.

Zheng Zha turned over, muttered sleepily, opened his eyes, and was surprised to see the military division sitting on the bed.

"Chu Xuan?"

There was a wave of ripples floating on the colonel's usual calm expression.

"I had a dream."

At the gate of Atsuta Jingu Shrine, Toya was sitting profusely in sweat, holding the Kusanagi sword that caused him to fall into a deep dream in his arms.

Zhao Yingkong and Ming Yanwei stood beside him, their faces were pale with lingering fear, if Shiye was also killed in the dream, they would not be able to wake up, the task was common.

"Complete the side storyline 'Exorcise Yamata no Orochi's resentment', get a Kusanagi sword, B-level horror side story once, and reward 5000 points. You can summon Yamata no Orochi to fight three times a day."

Grade B!It turned out to be only B rank!Shiye couldn't even laugh, he was almost scared to death by himself in his dream.

The warm sunshine on the body dispelled yesterday's nightmare, bringing with it the same warm aftertaste as the last sentence of the dream: "Probably in your mind, I am invincible."
