Nightmare Attack

Chapter 1685
Ye Qiutang couldn't understand more and more, but the word "weird" inexplicably terrified her, "What are you talking about, please explain clearly!"

Jiang Cheng turned his head to look at Ye Qiutang, "Miss Ye, if my guess is correct, the danger we are about to face may be even more serious than Mr. Song said. I must explain something to you."

"My friend and I have more experience than you in dealing with such things. We have solved similar things many times, so you must trust us. Don't hide your next actions, especially at critical moments. You must not make your own claims and obey the arrangement."

Sensing Jiang Cheng's sight, Ye Qiutang slowly frowned, as if she wanted to see the other face under Jiang Cheng's face. After a while, she didn't make a statement but said in a flat tone: "Old Mr. Song is right, you two are not wrong." Usually, he even suspects that these evil spirits in the temple are coming for you, and the only thing we did wrong is that we shouldn't save you."

Hearing Ye Qiutang's slightly complaining tone, Jiang Cheng acted very calmly, "Miss Ye, I don't want to shirk responsibility, it's just that something has already happened, so it's meaningless to say it now."

"I can only tell you that we have the ability to solve problems, not just us, I have 4 other friends who have also been scattered to different places."

"Everyone's experience is similar, but if everything goes well, we will meet soon. At that time, you will walk your Yangguan Road, and I will cross my single-plank bridge. Everyone will not interfere with each other, and everyone will be happy."

Jiang Cheng's words were somewhat inhuman, and the fat man found it harsh, but Ye Qiutang didn't react much, she just stared at Jiang Cheng's face, and asked after a long while: "I just ask one question, you guys?" Are the two of you the spies sent by Nanman, and is this all a game you set up?"

To this, Jiang Cheng replied mercilessly: "I think Miss Ye is thinking too much about this question. If Nanmanzi has this method, they have no reason to use it on you."

After thinking for a while, Ye Qiutang nodded slowly, "I, Ye Qiutang, said that there is absolute sincerity in cooperation. Don't worry about that. I believe you can take us out of this ghost temple."

"That's good." Jiang Cheng's expression softened.

"By the way, what is the weird thing you just mentioned?" Ye Qiutang stopped under the quaint stone wall of the Taoist temple. This question seemed to be very important to her.

"Miss Xie Chong Ye should understand. If it's weird, you can treat it as an extremely powerful evil spirit. This kind of thing is invincible. It's best to find their flaws." After night fell, Jiang Cheng tried to call Wu Wu. , but there was no reaction at all. This ghost temple trapped them like a cage. What worried Jiangcheng even more was that until now, Li Baiyao, Shunyu, and Zhu Jie Tang Qisheng had not moved.

What Jiang Cheng said before was a reassurance for Ye Qiutang. She didn't think it was necessary for Jiang Cheng to lie to herself at a critical moment. "Where are we going now?" Ye Qiutang asked. Make a suggestion, "Is it the Buddhist scriptures pavilion?"

Taoist Lingxu said very clearly last night that tonight is the deadline, and the purple gold bowl must be smashed, it is a great evil.

"No, it's not yet time." After Jiangcheng stood still, he simply identified the direction, then raised his feet and walked to one side, "We won't wait, let's go to the Gongde Hall first."

Fatty has a very bad impression of Gongdetang. Every time he wakes up at night, he goes to Gongdetang. The way the monks in Gongdetang cultivate "merit" also refreshes the physical and psychological lower limit of Fatty as a person time and time again. Last time, the fat man clearly remembered that not only were there men and women having sex under the Buddha statue, but also monks were lying on top of the monks. The monks in this precept temple really did not taboo meat and vegetables, and the disgusting fat man almost vomited at that time.

The three of them were cautious along the way, but fortunately, they didn't encounter any trouble. When they came to the gate of the courtyard where the Gongde Hall was located, the fat man frowned instinctively. He suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"There's no such noisy voice anymore, aren't you used to it?" Jiang Cheng took a glance and knew what the fat man was thinking, everything about him was written on his face.

"Ah, yes, yes, I said it feels weird."

Although the appearance of today's Gongde Hall has not changed much, it is quite different in style from before. Here, stone walls and gray tiles, a sense of Taoism's free and easy advocating nature blows across the face.

There is a faint light coming out of it, not the light of a torch, but really a little light, a small clay pot, or a candle.

As the distance got closer, the sound of chanting Taoist scriptures could be heard from inside.

The buzzing sound was not annoying, but it could be heard that there were quite a few people inside.

Not daring to go to the old location, the three of them cautiously walked out of another window, and Jiang Cheng poked a small hole in the window paper with his finger.

Ye Qiutang followed suit.

Just when the fat man was about to poke him with his thick fingers, Jiang Cheng stopped him, "You don't need to, stay and watch out for the surroundings."

Through the small hole, Jiang Cheng saw dozens of Taoist priests sitting cross-legged inside. These Taoist priests turned their backs to them, with blue straw mats under their bodies, and a book of scriptures was placed in front of each of them.

Candles stood among the Taoist priests, standing so casually, candle tears slid down the candles and dripped on the ground.

A gust of wind blew, and the candlelight swayed violently. Jiang Cheng could see clearly that the walls around here were covered with portraits of people. Judging from their appearance and the gestures of their hands, they should all be gods in the Taoist sect. .

"hiss--"

Ye Qiutang took a breath, and then she gently touched Jiangcheng with her hand.

In fact, she didn't need to remind him, Jiang Cheng himself had seen it, the thin figure from the back was very familiar to the middle right of the Taoist priests who were meditating and chanting.

It was Monk Huicong, but now that Huicong has grown hair, he should be called Xuancong.

I saw Xuan Cong's body moving from time to time, his head lowered slightly, and he seemed to be reciting scriptures with everyone.

After changing positions several times in a row, Jiangcheng Ye Qiutang could only see the backs of these monks.

"Let's go around to the other side, the movement must be gentle." Jiang Cheng lowered his voice.

Soon, the three of them tiptoed around half a circle of the Gongde Hall, and went in another direction, where there was another window that looked more worn out.

After confirming that there was no danger, Ye Qiutang carefully poked a small hole in the window paper with his fingers, then leaned close to the small hole to look in, but the next second, the fat man suddenly noticed that Ye Qiutang's body froze, and then trembled uncontrollably.

Seeing that something was wrong, Jiang Cheng immediately pulled Ye Qiutang back, "What's going on?"

He was guarding the surroundings just now, and he hadn't had time to insert a hole in the window paper, and he didn't choose to look at the small hole Ye Qiutang left, because he knew that if Ye Qiutang was really affected by something, then he would be tricked if he continued to look at it. , so he chose to ask Ye Qiutang first, this is also the experience of having experienced many nightmare worlds.

"What the hell is going on with them?" Ye Qiutang looked terrified, "What I just saw was the backs of these Taoist priests, they...they still have their backs facing me!"

As soon as the words came out, the fat man immediately made up the picture inside, and his whole body was not well.

Jiang Cheng was silent for a moment, then poked another hole and looked inside. After a while, he looked back and nodded at the fat man with difficulty, "She's right, these Taoist priests still have their backs to us."

It was impossible for the Taoist priests inside to completely change direction in such a short period of time without making a sound, so Jiang Cheng judged that they had been tricked.

Jiangcheng once read a post about a school spooky story. The post was called Girl with Braids, and it was about a girl’s dormitory in high school. On the night of the holiday, all the roommates in the dormitory left, and Xiaomei was the only one left. Xiaomei, who was sleeping soundly at night, was suddenly awakened by the sound of footsteps in the corridor.

The sound of the footsteps was very strange, walking back and forth in the corridor, Xiaomei felt strange, so she looked out through the peephole on the door of the dormitory, and saw a girl with a ponytail standing beside her. Outside the door, he stopped and remained motionless, with a thick ponytail hanging behind his head, black and black.

Xiaomei didn't remember that there was this girl in the school. At the same time, in the middle of the night, all the students who lived in the dormitory had almost left. Gently took out the phone and sent a message to the girl.

As a result, it didn't take long before I received a reply, but the moment she opened the reply, Xiaomei was shocked, because it was an unclear photo, which seemed to be secretly taken from a crack in the door. It's a ponytail girl with her back to the camera.

So the girl outside the door has ponytails on both sides, and she has no face at all.

Originally, Jiangcheng would only regard it as a third-rate novelist's pastime when he was bored, but there are many stories under this post, some of which are quite interesting, and some say that the dormitory opposite Xiaomei at that time In fact, no one lives at all, Xiaomei's friends are fake, and some people say that the ponytail girl outside is Xiaomei's friend, but this friend was killed by Xiaomei, and this friend came to seek revenge on her, and there is a The post that was pinned to the top reminded the young Jiangcheng deeply. It said that Xiaomei was really cursed when she opened the photo, and the ponytail in the photo was the girl's face.

Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng suddenly had a "thump" in his heart, and he immediately looked into the room. The inside was still the same, with the Taoist priest facing away, the blue straw mat, and the dimly lit candles, but he just felt that something was wrong. changed, but his eyes swept over one by one, and the Taoist priests inside did not change.

"hiss--"

The next second, Ye Qiutang, who was also observing, seemed to have discovered something, and took a sharp breath, "No, stop watching!" Ye Qiutang pulled Jiang Cheng and pulled him back.

Ye Qiutang's voice trembled, and her eyes became terrified. She kept looking around, as if she was worried about something.

"Keep your voice down, you're not afraid." Ye Qiutang's voice just now frightened the fat man, his face turned green, and the evil Taoist inside would be in trouble if he got provoked.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Cheng tried to appease Ye Qiutang, "Speak slowly if you have something to say."

"Don't look, there are fewer people inside." Ye Qiutang said hurriedly, "Last time I took a few extra glances at a Taoist priest, so I had an impression of him, but wait until I look again, and the Taoist priest is gone!"

"It's gone." Jiang Cheng frowned, "To be honest, Ms. Ye, I have been on guard against this, so I pay attention to check the number of people every time. I counted twice, and each time there were 44 people, including Huicong. Monk."

"Impossible. I clearly remember there. There was a Taoist priest under the pillar on the right, but he disappeared just now." Ye Qiutang said with certainty.

After speaking, Ye Qiutang continued to look closely, but this time her reaction was more intense, because not only the previous Taoist priest disappeared, but also the other Taoist priest next to this Taoist priest, and they disappeared together with them. The scriptures, the blue straw mat under the body, all of this happened very naturally.

The fat man wanted to come up to watch, but as soon as he raised his hand, he was forced back by Jiang Cheng's gaze, "Don't make any trouble, you are the only one who didn't get the trick, and you still rushed to jump into the fire pit."

By now, Jiangcheng probably knew where the problem was. Today, the Gongde Hall was a trap. The other party knew that they wanted to look closely at Monk Huicong's face, so they set up this trap.

What they were looking at before was indeed the backs of the Taoist priests inside, but now they are looking at the faces of these things.

And seeing the front face means that they have also been discovered by the ghosts inside.

At the end of that post, Xiaomei disappeared, and she became the next ponytail girl, like a water ghost looking for a substitute.

After briefly explaining the story of the girl with ponytails to Fatty Ye Qiutang, the faces of both of them turned bright. In all fairness, Ye Qiutang didn't think she was that afraid of death. After she became a famous general, she had seen many bloody scenes , but what she was afraid of was such a strange death, silent and full of despair.

"Is there anything you can do? If so, then"

Before Ye Qiutang finished speaking, her eyes suddenly froze. She stared straight at the position behind Jiang Cheng, and her eyes fell.

Jiang Cheng turned around and made a blocking movement at the same time. He subconsciously thought it was a sneak attack, and anything could happen in this damn place.

But a gust of night wind hit, and there was nothing behind him, with no trace of anyone at all.

But in the next second, as he looked down, he found a pair of shoe prints on the mud.

The shoe print was large, and the overall shape was relatively round, completely different from the shoes of the three of them. Jiang Cheng immediately realized that the shoes were black cloth shoes that Taoist priests often wear, that is, the kind of round-toe shoes.

But when did Taoist priests come by their side?The shoe prints are very new, and it looks like they were left not long ago.

Slowly, Jiangcheng discovered something even more frightening. There was only one pair of these shoe prints, and there was wet mud all around, but he couldn't find the shoe prints that walked over and out of this pair of shoes. It seemed to appear suddenly at a certain moment.
