cross the madman's wish

Except for the central square that was illuminated by the bonfire, the rest of Fairy Tale Town was shrouded in darkness. The town, which was still bustling in the daytime, was so quiet that not a single sound could be heard.

The old man who came to invite them to stay overnight was not in a hurry, he just stood aside and waited for them to make a decision.

"I think this must be a trap!" After the experience just now, the frog man has become a little frightened.

Mr. Da Xiang, who has always been silent, also let out a breath at this time: "Then where are we going to live this big night? Sleep on the main road?" He looked a little unhappy, obviously the kind of person who pays more attention to the quality of life people.

While Zhou Qitian was waiting for their discussion to come to a conclusion, Tang Yancheng asked softly beside him: "Are you hungry?"

Hearing this, Zhou Qitian just wanted to say that he was not hungry, but his stomach groaned a few times in an embarrassing manner. Although Tang Yancheng didn't smile, the corners of his mouth curled up invisibly.

Zhou Qitian's face darkened, but the next second Tang Yancheng grabbed his sleeve, pulled him to the side of the old man and said, "My friend is hungry, please lead the way."

The old man smiled politely and nodded: "You two distinguished guests are polite, please come with me."

Seeing the behavior of the two of them, the others couldn't sit still: "We haven't discussed the result yet, what are you two doing? Can you stop acting on your own? Can you have a sense of teamwork?" Aunt Huamao seemed to think that Occupy the moral high ground.

But Tang Yancheng didn't even bother to talk to her, and said flatly: "We are on a single team." Successfully blocked the mouths of the others.

Seeing Tang Yancheng walk away briskly, Zhou Qitian couldn't help but be a little curious: "I remember you didn't accept the task of leading people to pass the level before? Let's just leave like this? Where are you suffering from?"

"Bitter?" It was the first time Tang Yancheng had heard of a client being treated as a sufferer, but he explained: "That person failed the last world and is dead."

Zhou Qitian's heart trembled when he heard it: "Could it be that you brought it too?"

Tang Yancheng shook his head: "It was brought by another club. He felt that the other party's strength was not good enough, so he planned to renew the contract with us."

"This..." It must be the conclusion drawn from life, Zhou Qitian sighed for a while.

Seeing the two of them walking towards the town with the old man, the elephant man thought for a while, and followed quickly. The remaining cats, alpacas, frogs, kangaroos, and orangutans looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Then what should we do?" The kangaroo was a little girl. At this time, she asked weakly. Aunt Huamao looked at the few people going away in front of her, her eyes were full of indignation: "What can we do? This group of people is really disorganized If you have no discipline, you deserve it if you die!"

The orangutan man smoked half of the cigarette in his hand in one breath, and said coolly: "Could you be the aunt of the neighborhood committee? Why do you care so much?"

Aunt Huamao probably took advantage of her age to be the oldest in the group, so she murmured disapprovingly, "I'm not worried about their safety."

The orangutan man let out a cold snort from his nasal cavity: "Come on, it's good to be able to take care of yourself."

After stamping out the cigarette butts on the ground, the orangutan man stood up: "I'm going to follow, if you want to leave, go together, no matter what, the house is safer than the dark outdoors."

Indeed, the firewood was almost burned out, and the surroundings gradually darkened. The thought that this place would be completely plunged into darkness later, the few people present felt horrified, and hurriedly followed without hesitation.

Here, Zhou Qitian and Tang Yancheng walked behind the old man. The old man seemed to be walking very slowly with a cane, but in fact he walked at the same speed as a normal person. They walked for about ten minutes. Stop at the gate of the manor.

Trembling, the old man took out the key and opened the iron door. The iron door made a harsh creaking sound. It was obviously not used often, and many places were rusted.

The old man stood by the door, bent down and made a gesture of inviting them in: "You two distinguished guests, my master is waiting for you inside, you go in first, and I will welcome other guests at the door."

After listening, Tang Yancheng dragged Zhou Qitian in without any hesitation, and the elephant man who was a few steps behind them also hurriedly followed.

Seeing this, the old man showed a satisfied smile.

Zhou Qitian and Tang Yancheng walked through the withered garden at the entrance and entered the room. When they saw it, they saw a very luxurious living room, which was decorated in the British style of the last century, with a big fireplace and oil paintings all over the room. And a long table for more than 20 people to eat. At this time, there are nine sets of tableware with complete specifications on the table.

And the owner of this manor was sitting at the end of the dining table at this moment, looking at everyone with dull eyes.

Maybe it was because the lights were too dim that Zhou Qitian didn't find him at the first time, so he said hello apologetically: "I'm sorry to bother you at such a late hour."

The owner of the manor waved his hand stiffly: "It's okay Mr. Rabbit, you can sit down and rest first, I think other guests should arrive soon."

Zhou Qitian nodded, and turned his head to greet Tang Yancheng, but found that he had already found a seat beside him. Seeing him looking at him, he nodded at the chair beside him, signaling him to sit down.

Not long after Zhou Qitian sat down, the elephant man also walked in and smiled at the two of them.

"So, can the food be served?" Tang Yancheng tapped his fingers on the table, quite anticlimactic.

An unnatural smile appeared on the stiff face of the owner of the manor, and he said, "Dinners can only be happy if we share them together. Please bear with me, three distinguished guests."
