Nightmare Attack

Chapter 743 Fable
The first person said, the lord is good at fighting, and as far as the eye can see, all the land and slaves belong to you.

But on the way he came, he saw the slaves gathered together from a distance, with haggard faces and suspicious behavior, which really embarrassed the lord.

The treasure he presented can make these hateful slaves disappear from the sight of the lord.

The second person said that on the way he came, he heard many slaves talking about the lord in private and said some ugly things, and the lord must have been deeply annoyed by it.

The treasure he presented can save the lord from the worries of rumors.

The third person shook his head, and said, these are not enough, the dirty breath of those slaves can be detected even in the castle.

And the treasure he presented can make the lord completely ignore those slaves who smell like dead people.

The lord's son was very happy and kept them.

From then on, the three of them, as the most loyal bodyguards, will always guard the lord's side.

The story ends here.

"No more?" Gao Yan asked.

"Gone."

The fat man stroked his chin and said, "What a strange story."

Shen Mengyun hesitated for a moment, and said with a weird expression: "This doesn't seem to be a simple story, but rather." She paused, looking at her expression as she was thinking about suitable adjectives in her mind.

"It's more like a fable." Jiang Cheng looked at Shen Mengyun's side face and said calmly.

Hearing that Shen Mengyun's eyes flashed, "That's right, that's how I feel. There are no specific characters in this story, nor the time and place."

The current situation is already obvious, and the way to survive in the library tonight is hidden in this fable.

If they can penetrate it, they have a chance to survive.

But when everyone was thinking, suddenly, there was a crisp sound of marbles from the lock on the library door, which was extremely clear in the quiet environment.

The next second, the door opened.

It didn't open completely, but stopped after halfway through, and the gap exposed was probably only big enough for one person to get in sideways.

Huai Yi quickly glanced at the phone, raised his head and said, "12 o'clock sharp."

Jiang Cheng took a breath, looked at the library door which was only half open, and the mission began
Entering the door went smoothly, only the fat man was a little troublesome, he got stuck in the gap of the door, Huai Yi pushed outside, Jiang Cheng pulled inside, and finally got him in.

The fat man touched his red arm, his face somewhat embarrassed, and said: "You believe me, I'm sure when I go back this time."

"Hush—" Shen Mengyun gestured for silence.

This is the first floor of the library. It feels similar to the medical building and the abandoned playground. The whole library is shrouded in a gloomy feeling.

It's like adding a filter.

Although there is no lighting, but if you look closely, you can still see it clearly.

But farther away, there are only vague outlines left.

During the day, Fatty came here with Jiang Cheng, but at night and during the day, it feels completely different.

At night, especially in the library at midnight, there is no one there, and there are black shadows in the distance.

After watching for a long time, it seems that the shadows are alive and can move in the next second.

Gao Yan looked around carefully, then turned his head, looked at Jiang Cheng, and lowered his voice: "Brother Jiang, what shall we do next?"

He was sure that Jiang Cheng hadn't told the whole story, because he wouldn't have done it.

"Brother Gao, don't think too much." Jiang Cheng glanced at him flatly, "I know the same information as you."

He talked about Gao Yan, the old fox, but Jiang Cheng also had an unexplainable strange feeling in his heart.

He had been here during the day, on this floor.

He also remembered some of the surrounding arrangements, but he didn't see any changes.

But why is there a sense of strangeness?

He was sure that something had changed around here, but he hadn't found it yet.

His gaze slowly scanned the surroundings, and Jiang Cheng's eyes kept flickering with a faint light. What's the difference?

Wang Qi walked a few steps in one direction, and there was a table with a black-covered book on it. After opening it, there were vague names on it.

It was like the registration form they had seen before.

But what really attracted everyone's attention was the thing on the other side of the table.

Yes. An hourglass.

Black.

Slightly larger than usual.

The outer shell looks like it is made of wood, but when you start it, you will find that it is much heavier than expected.

The touch is also weird.

The top of the wooden shell is bumpy, it should be some years old.

Jiang Cheng took the hourglass and examined it carefully.

This hourglass is not very eye-catching at first glance, but after a closer inspection, you will find that the craftsmanship is very good. The bottom is hollowed out and the corners are covered with silver.

It's just that it has been through for a long time, and it is very worn.

All in all, this hourglass is randomly thrown here, which makes people feel very out of place. According to the style of this hourglass, it should be placed in a museum or something.

While thinking of the word museum, Jiang Cheng's finger seemed to be pricked by something, and with a slight shake, the hourglass turned upside down.

Then there is fine sand, which slowly slides down along the connection in the middle.

Before Younen could react, he heard a strange sound coming from a distance.

"Squeak-"

In the next second, everyone followed the prestige and found that the sound came from a dark corner, where a door could be vaguely seen.

A very ordinary door, black, double-opening.

There should be a place like a safe passage behind.

"What's the sound?" Shen Mengyun clenched her fingers, a little nervous.

At the same time as he heard the voice, a picture suddenly flashed in Jiang Cheng's mind, which was the borrowing office on the 4th floor of the library that Yuan Xiaoyi mentioned.

The sound just now was very much like the legs of an old chair rubbing against the ground.

"Boom."

"Boom."

What followed was the sound of slow but heavy footsteps.

"Stay away." Jiang Cheng said, "Everyone hide."

In fact, there is no need for him to say, when he heard the sound of footsteps, Gao Yan, Wang Qi disappeared, Shen Mengyun nodded, and ran in another direction.

Although Huaiyi, Fatty Jiangcheng, and the three were also separated, they were not far away and were within sight of each other.

Huai Yi hid under a table, and the fat man hid behind a big bookshelf, with a pair of small eyes looking out through the gap between the bookshelves.

Jiang Cheng hid behind a pillar.

Everyone held their breath and stared at the movement outside.

A moment later, the security door opened.

With the dim light in the library, they finally saw the guy who made the sound.

The fat man's small eyes slowly opened wide, and his breathing also became rapid.
