The rising sun dyed the sky blood red.

Dachuan City welcomed the dawn as usual. Looking down, there were cars and people rushing around everywhere. Everything was the same as usual.

Most people didn't know about the existence of supernatural events and continued their quiet and peaceful lives.

However, under this tranquility, there were surging undercurrents. If someone could count the areas that have been blocked in Dachuan City in recent months, they would find that the city was not as safe as imagined.

The sun was rising. Today's weather forecast was a cloudless sunny day. It should have been a clear sky, but there was a faint red glow on the edge of the sky, as if it was the remaining light of the morning sun.

People didn't notice this and continued their busy lives day after day.

There are many inconspicuous and simple bungalows in the urban villages in the south of Dachuan City. These houses are the products left over from the last century and look very old.

Each house is made of standard black bricks and tiles, and the layout is very cramped. The alleys of the same style twist and turn like a complex maze. It is easy for ordinary people to get lost.

Most of these houses are inhabited by the older generation, and they are filled with some furnishings from the 1980s, but the layout of one house is particularly special.

The exterior of this house looks as inconspicuous as other bungalows, but the walls inside are covered with pixelated photos, and the people in the photos are wearing colorful headgear.

The layout of the living room and bedroom is very casual, and the wardrobe is full of clothes with spikes and chains.

This house is full of aristocratic atmosphere. At first glance, it is the habitat of a member of the Zangai family.

But there is something in the room that is out of tune with these aristocratic furnishings.

A dark and old altar is placed in the center of the living room. The age of the table seems to be a bit old, and there are signs of decay everywhere. There are many dark red blood stains on the table, which looks very dirty.

There are some daily necessities on the altar in a messy manner. If there were not some candles and fruits at the end of the table, it would not be seen that this table is an altar.

Amidst the mess, a wooden sword was quietly hidden. It was blood red and exuded a strange aura.

On the wall of the altar was a huge selfie. The person in the photo was a young man wearing a red hood. In the center of the photo, the words "炎の鍠偙" were written crookedly with a marker.

In front of the altar, a person who looked exactly like the one in the selfie was holding a flip phone and making a call.

"Is there a problem with the Longjiang Reservoir? Well, okay... It seems that some things have to be resolved after all, and there is no escape..."

"I will go there tomorrow. You keep it confidential. I don't want a third person to be present."

"Well, that's it. Contact me on QQ if you have anything."

After hanging up the phone, he glanced at the sky outside the window, his deep left eye fixed on the hazy blood red of the skyline.

Just then, the door of a bedroom opened, and Chen Xiao walked out straight out, apparently going out.

Seeing this, the red-haired young man immediately asked:

"Ergou, where are you going?"

"Ah?" Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment, because his eldest cousin never cared about his going out before, so he felt a little confused,

"Jiang Yan wants to treat us to a meal, I will have dinner with them and come back."

"Okay, come back early." The eldest cousin Zhu Yan nodded, and then his expression became serious,

"Ergou, I'm going to Datong City in the next few days. When I'm not here, you stay at home. If there is an emergency, go to the basement and don't come out."

"I know, eldest cousin." Chen Xiao said impatiently.

It's not that he doesn't respect his eldest cousin, but his eldest cousin has said similar instructions many times. Every time he goes out, he asks him to hide in the basement when he has something to do, and his ears are calloused from hearing it.

"That's good to know. Also, don't get too close to Jiang Yan in the future, especially during this period of time." Zhu Yan continued to remind him.

"Why?" Chen Xiao obviously didn't understand.

"Don't worry about it. What my cousin said is not wrong. You are the only descendant of our family and the hope of our family. I don't want to see any accidents happen." Zhu Yan was unwilling to explain too much, but just warned earnestly.

"Family..." Chen Xiao glanced at the selfie on the wall and suddenly showed contempt. He didn't want to inherit the will and make the Zangai family no longer low-key.

"Okay, I know." He replied perfunctorily, and then rushed out.

Looking at his somewhat reckless back, Zhu Yan stroked his heavy bangs, and his face showed the helplessness of an old father.

"This kid is still like this..."

In a high-end restaurant near Qinghui University, Jiang Yan booked a small private room and called Qi Xiu, Zhao Qing and Chen Xiao over, ready toA small gathering.

Zhao Qing and Qi Xiu have already taken their seats. They sit next to Jiang Yan and are now just waiting for Chen Xiao to come.

Jiang Yan still looks ferocious. After fighting the blood mist ghost, his ghost revives more seriously. There are more and more black blood on his face. The waiters in the restaurant are scared and dare not approach him.

Because of the blood mist incident, Zhao Qing has been accustomed to Jiang Yan's appearance, so she was not surprised when she saw Jiang Yan.

Qi Xiu was frightened when he first came, but soon his face returned to normal. Although he didn't know the details of the sudden supernatural incident in the school yesterday, he also had a general understanding.

I heard that Building 16 was invaded by an unknown red fog last night, and all the people in the four dormitories died, and only Zhao Qing survived.

After that, the university issued an emergency announcement, the school was blocked, and all students returned home to take classes.

The incident last night was also reported, but the official explanation was that there was an unknown virus leak in the school's biological laboratory, so it was urgently blocked to prevent the virus from spreading.

But the students in school, especially the girls in Building 16, knew that this was not the case. It was just that they were all under the gag order of the Special Events Handling Bureau, so the public opinion did not ferment further.

Of course, Zhao Qing, the only survivor of the blood mist incident, must know more.

Thinking of this, Qi Xiu subconsciously glanced at Zhao Qing, and roughly understood the reason in his heart. Zhao Qing must have been rescued by Jiang Yan.

Just as he wanted to ask further, the door of the private room opened, and Chen Xiao walked in dusty.

"Sorry, my cousin's ghost fire was stopped by the traffic police on the highway, and it was stuck in the evening rush hour. Finally, I had to run over." Chen Xiao stroked his knees and panted.

"It's okay, we just arrived too." Qi Xiu said.

"That's good, order the dishes quickly, I'm starving, I want to eat big plate chicken." Chen Xiao smiled and took the menu, but soon frowned.

This is a Western restaurant, there is no big plate chicken at all.
