Chapter 24 Overlapping dreams (3)

Footsteps sounded from far to near, and the sound of jingling bells was particularly abrupt in the silent night.

Blooming held his breath and stuck to the side of the box, and heard footsteps sighing to his ears, and then stopped abruptly.

Not long after, rhythmic knocking sounded above the box again.

Tick, tick.

It seems that some musician is playing music with a glass bottle, but the sound of stumbling is not so much music as noise.

The man was right above Shengkai's hiding place, and Shengkai waited patiently for a while before hearing the chaotic knocking sound subsided.

However, in the next moment, the lid of the box was slowly removed a crack.

Sheng's scalp tightened, and his dark eyes fixed on the pitch black above his head.

The blackout boards were removed, and a blinding light split the darkness.

Shengkai squinted, turned over at the same time the cover was removed, raised her legs and swept towards the person.

It was a very petite female figure.

She was caught off guard by Shengkai and forced her to take a few steps back, her waist hit the corner of the table in the middle of the room, and she bent down in pain.

Nie Zheng heard the sound, but when he saw the man's appearance, he was slightly taken aback.

In the supposedly dark room, someone turned on the light. The man panted and leaned against the side of the table. His long golden hair fell on her shoulders in layers like a tumbling wheat field.

She was barefoot, covering her waist and abdomen with one hand, and broke out in a cold sweat from the pain.

Nie Zheng and Shengkai glanced at each other without a trace, and a question popped up in their hearts at the same time:

Is this girl a human or a ghost?

Before Shengkai could open her mouth, the blond girl had already recovered and looked up at the two of them.

Blooming hesitated for a moment, then said in surprise:

"Yan Sichao?"

Fortunately, he has a good memory, and he still remembers Yan Sichao who had met once.

At that time, Shengkai had just come to Lost Paradise, and met this girl on the way to Shuhe's shop.

Unexpectedly, a trace of confusion flashed across Yan Sichao's face, and then he asked:

"Who is Yan Sichao?"

Bloom frowned slightly.

He believed in his memory, even if he only saw Yan Sichao once.

Then, either Yan Sichao was disguising, or she entered this secret room for some reason and became an NPC inside...

No, wait, maybe there's another possibility.

Sheng Sheng was thinking a lot, while looking down at Yan Sichao, pretending to be frightened, he shook his head slightly:

"Sorry, I got the wrong person."

Nie Zheng witnessed Shengkai's amazing face-changing technology in a few moments, and was silently speechless.

Yan Sichao didn't suspect anything, flipped through this chapter casually, stepped forward and took Shengkai's hand and asked:

"Are you Zoe?"

Blooming a meal, then nodded again.

"I'm Emily."

Yan Si faced anxiously, and while speaking quickly, turned around and said, "I have the map of the manor in my hand, follow me quickly!"

Nie Zheng subconsciously glanced at Shengkai, and saw that the latter got up and followed Yan Sichao without hesitation for a second.

Just after breaking free from Yan Sichao's hand, he wiped it on his clothes in disgust.

"..."

Nie Zheng opened his mouth and completely forgot what he was about to say.

On the other hand, Shengkai staggered slightly, stood in front of Nie Zheng, and said softly:

"Follow up."

Nie Zheng also lowered his voice:

"Are we going to follow along like this?"

"NPC guides the way."

Shengkai raised her chin slightly, "If you don't go, it's not for nothing."

Nie Zheng went crazy:

"Haven't you seen her?

Why is she now an NPC again? "

While the two were talking, Yan Sichao had already led them smoothly through the corridor they had come in. The moonlight was shining brightly, and the window sills were all stained with frost.

When Yan Sichao came just now, there was a burst of clanging and colliding sounds, and the two of them thought it was Andrew.

The danger was approaching, and the dark night deepened the negative emotions, so the two ignored the fragrance.

Looking back now, Shengkai felt that the current fragrance was even stronger than that in the room just now.

If it is said that Yan Sichao has nothing to do with Andrew, Shengkai doesn't even believe it.

But right now relying on the two of them alone, and still being trapped in a closed room, Shengkai would rather go head-on with the boss.

Besides, following Yan Sichao, maybe he can reconcile with other people.

This is a secret room audit that requires cooperation. I don't believe that other people will be so stubborn that they will go it alone.

When it was in full bloom, the long corridor seemed to be endless, but at this time Yan Sichao led the way, and the two walked out of the room almost instantly.

Returning to the bedroom where Blooming woke up again, the butler was no longer there.

Yan Sichao tiptoed, walked carefully to the head of the bed, and lifted the blanket hidden under the bed.

Blooming followed.

It turns out that under the blanket, there is an underground secret passage with a width of one person, and the stairs are winding and long, leading to nowhere.

Yan Sichao took a few steps out with her skirt in hand, and seeing the two standing still, she couldn't help but doubtfully said:

"what happened?"

Shengkai folded his arms and smiled, saying:

"Why don't you show me the map?"

Yan Sichao was taken aback, with a momentary hesitation on his expression.

Sheng Kai and Nie Zheng could see it clearly, so they were even more reluctant to go down.

Who knows what monsters and ghosts are waiting for them in front of them.

Several people were deadlocked at the entrance of the secret passage, Yan Sichao tightly held the corner of the skirt with both hands, and explained:

"I hid the map in the stone next to the wishing pool."

Nie Zheng sneered:

"Then we'll wait for you here, you go back and get it."

Yan Sichao pursed his lips and glared at Nie Zheng, turned around angrily, raised his foot but accidentally stepped on the long skirt on the ground, and for a moment his left foot crossed his right foot, and he was about to fall to the ground.

With bright eyes and quick hands, he grabbed Nie Zheng's hand and quickly stopped Yan Sichao's body that was about to fall.

Nie Zheng:

"?"

Shengkai withdrew his hand, and smiled at Yan Sichao as if nothing happened:

"Just kidding, it's bad for girls to be angry, let's go, we believe you."

Nie Zheng:

"..."

I haven't seen you for a long time, but Shengkai is still the one who killed a thousand swords.

Seeing that the two of them did not seem to be lying, Yan Sichao looked up and down with his almond eyes for a while, then snorted coldly and said:

"Then keep up."

Nie Zheng fell behind, and greeted Shengkai with an elbow, but was dodged deftly by Shengkai.

The former gritted his teeth and said:

"What the hell are you doing?"

"I think there is something wrong with Yan Sichao's identity."

Shengkai put away her smiling face, frowned and looked in Yan Sichao's direction, "I was wondering, is she an NPC or someone who came to participate in the review?"

After some probing by Shengkai just now, Yan Sichao didn't show any flaws.

But even so, Shengkai still felt a strong sense of disobedience.

Although they don't know what's waiting for them in front of the secret road, it's not a good choice to stand still here. What if that perverted Andrew comes back?

Yan Sichao walked quickly ahead, maybe because he was tricked by Shengkai once, he didn't want to talk to him again.

The secret passage is surrounded by primitive mud blocks, but at intervals, a lamp is lit on the wall. The long tunnel can't be seen at a glance. The three of them shuttled a few steps in it, and they couldn't get away from each other. aroma.

Soon, the secret path will come to an end.

There were no ghosts at the end, and the moonlight fell and sprinkled on the feet of several people.

The wishing pool is not far from the exit of the secret passage—on the overlapping and scattered stones, there is a small pool of water.

In the middle of the pool stands a huge stone, which is carved into the shape of a lamp wick, and is spouting spring water.

The moonlight is very cool.

Yan Sichao was familiar with the road, walked to the back of the wishing pool in a few steps, pulled twice, and there was an extra roll of cowhide in his hand.

It was also at this time that the sound of the gurgling water in the wishing pool suddenly stopped.

Yan Sichao turned her head abruptly, the panic on her face was fully revealed, she grabbed the map in her hand while running back:

"They're out, run!"

The sound of vibration came with a bang.

The wishing pool is not big, but the vibrations it makes are like huge waves rolling in the sky. The blooming is so close that it feels like the whole ground will be turned upside down.

Something is crawling out of the ground.

The mist rose from the wishing pool, completely surrounding the three of them.

Blooming looked around, and found that there were faint figures emerging from the thick mist.

After a while, these figures finally revealed their true colors.

Those were many seemingly young girls, but at this moment, skins had become the least important thing.

Under the shriveled skin, it seemed as if all the blood had been drained from the body, leaving only a skeleton to support the movements of the body.

Their faces were pale, their eyeballs protruded, and their entire bodies were left with the color of corruption and death.

These people are the "residue" left after Andrew made the perfume. Yan Sichao trembled in fright, as if it was not the first time he had seen this scene. There was no blood left on his face, and he looked somewhat similar to those figures.

Shengkai looked at it for a while, but found no emotion in Yan Sichao except fear.

But these ghosts seemed to be waiting for Yan Sichao to be triggered, they appeared so just right.

It was the first time for Nie Zheng to see such a fight, and he said with a pale face:

"What the hell is this?"

Sheng Kai didn't even look back, he casually tapped on his wrist, and a rusty Tang knife appeared in Sheng Hua's hand with a burst of blue light.

This knife followed him in two secret rooms. Although the edge of the knife was a little rusty, it was unexpectedly easy to use.

He has no memory of learning to use the Tang Dao in his mind, but when he holds this weapon in his hand, the muscle memory that goes deep into the bone marrow follows.

A figure rushed forward with open teeth and claws.

Amidst Yan Sichao's panicked shouts, Shengkai slashed in the air, hitting the figure's chest.

But it was not as expected. The moment Tang Dao touched the figure, it was like touching a phantom like a wave of water. The figure floated and shook in mid-air for a few times, and then turned into a puff of green smoke, curling away.

Shenghua paused, and suddenly heard Nie Zheng shout:

"careful!"

There is the sound of wind behind the ear, whistling.

At this time, it should be too late to turn around and deal with it again, Sheng Kai thought.

But he still quickly lowered his body and swung the saber with his backhand - Tang Dao didn't touch the target, but the green-faced figure floating in mid-air turned into smoke and dust behind the blooming head.

As soon as Shengkai looked up, he saw a pair of familiar eyes.

The voice of the man was still clear and clear, with a smile that was not a smile.

"You can't kill phantoms that exist in dreams."
