Opening a Shop in the Nightmare World

"Everyone should know the content of the mission." Cheng Yun gestured to his left arm, "Sometimes, we can also see the difficulty of the current nightmare world from the time we need to survive. And this time the survival time of five days ...is the longest I've encountered so far."

Su Zimo waited quietly on the edge of the crowd, trying to reduce his sense of existence, just like some students who were absent-minded in school, for fear of being too active and being called up by the teacher to answer questions.

After all, he doesn't know anything about missions....

"The content of the task is relatively ordinary, and there are not many words involved." Cheng Yun and the other trainees stretched out their arms again to look at the two lines of simple text, "I have encountered similar difficult tasks before. There will be a long paragraph of mission descriptions, and there will always be someone who can find useful information from the large paragraphs of text, but this time..."

"It's not that there's no useful information, it's just that it makes people feel ordinary, very ordinary, like a very routine horror novel." The pockets on both sides of Jin Lei's white coat seem to have no mystery, but there are two scalpels hidden on the left It looks like a ghost weapon, and there is actually a set of paper and pen hidden on the right side, on which some information has been written and drawn, which should be notes related to the task.

"The first sentence is... pay attention to the mirror. The second sentence is... looking for a chance of life?" Jin Lei rubbed her temples with some headaches while speaking, "There are only ten words in total, and they are allocated to eleven of us. It’s only one word short.”

"I have asked Bai Man to close her eyes to cover the mirror in the hall." Cheng Yun also pointed to the decorative mirror on the wall covered by the tablecloth, "If the hall is our stronghold, then we must pay attention It should be this mirror, but I don't guarantee that there are no other mirrors or things that can reflect light in other places in this villa, so everyone should be very careful."

"Brother Yun, have you seen what's in the mirror?" Xiaohuo, who was playing with the lighter, was a little curious about the mirror over there, rubbing and rubbing, then moved to the side of the mirror, and even wanted to hook up the tablecloth with his fingers .

"Don't move!" Bai Man stopped with a serious face, "Among the requirements given by the mission, the clearest point is to pay attention to the mirror. Such low-level mistakes can be completely avoided."

"I'm just curious." Xiaohuo didn't stop playing with the lighter in his hand. It was okay at first, but after a long time, he found that the opponent's hand movements were too frequent, "I can't help it, I'm just a good person Move, and the more you don't let it move, the more itchy you will be."

"Of course you can move." Cheng Yun said with a smile, "I didn't see that I also dressed accordingly, you go."

"..." Cheng Yun's words seemed to block Xiao Huo's next words, and the movements of his hands also slowed down.

"Everyone, come and sit." Before everyone introduced themselves, Cheng Yun and his companions had already tidied up the hall, so the chairs around the long dining table and the refurbished sofa can be used for practice. The authors took a break, "It's not all bad that the task takes longer."

Because almost all the trainees around looked seasoned and experienced, the only trainee who seemed relatively immature was the little girl Wan Ling who hid behind Dr. , Su Zimo also adjusted his identity as a newcomer to experience, and asked curiously: "Captain Cheng, why do you say that the longer task time is not all a bad thing? According to the task requirements, we will be completely exposed to ghosts in five days." Under the threat, it should be more dangerous."

"I just want to comfort myself." Cheng Yun also smiled helplessly, "If the survival time is a few hours, maybe the ghost will persevere in chasing us for several hours. But if the survival time is In a few days, it is impossible for Li Gui to stare at us all the time, so we will have time to gather here to communicate, isn't it?"

"Of course, the current ease can only be regarded as the calm before the storm. It may be difficult for us to escape when a ghost of this intensity makes a move." Bai Man looked around at the ten people around him, "By then, wisdom and strategy may not be so strong." It’s useful, if you can fight it, fight it, if you can’t fight it, run away as fast as possible.”

"Is this hall our sanctuary?" The bearded man who claimed to be a lunatic before suddenly raised his hand and asked with drooping eyes.

"There are no newcomers among the trainees this time, and naturally there is no sanctuary that ghosts will never enter." Cheng Yun said very affirmatively this time, "The purpose of gathering everyone in the living room is to let everyone take care of each other. Isn’t the most stupid plot in the film that we split up when we knew it was dangerous? Although the hall is not safe, at least we are all here. The philosophy of the organization we belong to is also to practice for everyone in the dark. It will bring light to those who are there, so I will do my best to help everyone.”

What Cheng Yun said was true. If there are any newcomers in the team who entered the nightmare world for the first time, they might be moved by these words right away, like finding a life-saving driftwood when they are floating in the sea. feel.

But Su Zimo quietly looked around from the corner of his eyes, only to find that except for the six members of Shuguang, the other four trainees seemed...with unusually calm expressions, and could even be said to be expressionless, completely untouched.

On the other hand, when Su Zimo was listening, he felt that Cheng Yun was a good person, and at the same time told himself not to forget the painful experience of "the trainee cannot be trusted".

Even Qi Xiaomin, who shared weal and woe, and even Du Xin, who had been at the table for more than two years, couldn't fully trust him, let alone Cheng Yun who met for the first time?It is too early to put trust in the other party.

"That is to say, there is no other way but to sit here and wait." The lunatic directly found a more comfortable single sofa, lay on the armrest, and said lazily, "It's a pity that this hall is prepared for a banquet." If the food is not spoiled, we don't have to worry about starvation."

"The food here has already rotted into ashes, and there is nothing to regret." Dr. Jin frowned again as he said, "How do you know that a banquet is being prepared here?"

"Even if it is a big family, the plates and utensils prepared for meals on weekdays and banquets are different." The lunatic turned his head and saw the corner where Cheng Yun had piled up the garbage on the dining table before, "Forget it, just treat it as me. It was a wild guess."

"Oops!" Qi Xiaomin, who was standing aside at this time, also whispered, "Before I came here, I only brought some self-defense and first aid things, but I didn't bring any food at all, let alone the heavy water! "

"Old man, I also have a bad memory." The old man Fang Qin on the other side also stroked his beard, "Although the countdown to entering the nightmare world will appear on the arm in advance, but when I go out and play Tai Chi with my old partner, I forget the time. Clothes and this prop sword, I have nothing on my body."

"Five days..." Du Xin also looked a little troubled, "I have never experienced such a long mission, so I only brought some chocolate and compressed biscuits, which may not be enough for several people."

"I……"

Just as Su Zimo was about to say something, he saw Cheng Yun and Bai Man over there had already put their bulging backpacks on the long dining table and called for others to come along.

"We have all experienced missions of more than one day, so we will bring more. In addition, this is one of the instructions given by Suguang to us small leaders. Maybe someone has already experienced similar missions." Cheng Yun opened the backpack, While comforting, he said, "Although it may not be enough for eleven people to eat, it should still be possible for everyone to make do to maintain their strength."

With that said, Cheng Yun and Bai Man directly picked up the backpacks that had been unzipped, and dumped everything in the backpacks on the dining table in front of everyone, including a lot of chocolates, candies and compressed biscuits , but the reserve of drinking water is still very unsatisfactory.

At the same time, Xiaohuo, Dr. Jin, Du Xin, and Liu Xu who remained silent at the side also took out their backpacks and put more or less food on the dining table together.

Su Zimo was about to untie his backpack when he suddenly saw a black men's wallet dropped on the ground.Judging from the location where it fell, Cheng Yun should have accidentally dropped it to the ground when shaking off his backpack just now.

"Captain Cheng, is this your wallet?" Su Zimo bent down and picked up the wallet on the ground.

"Ah, yes."

Because the wallet was opened when it landed, so when Su Zimo picked up the wallet, he inadvertently saw a group photo of two people in the wallet. One of the photos was naturally Cheng Yun, and the other... was also Su Zimo. Someone Zimo had met before!

"Is this the legendary He He?" Qi Xiaomin also glanced at the photos in the wallet when Su Zimo was in a daze, but because Cheng Yun put the wallet back in the next second, he could clearly see the portraits in the photos Su Zimo may be the only one.

"Hehe?" Su Zimo was a little puzzled, the young girl he saw in the photo just now was obviously...

"Didn't you say that Captain Process is a famous wife-loving madman?" Qi Xiaomin blinked his right eye at Su Zimo, "Because Captain Cheng's name has the word 'cloud' in it, and his wife's surname is 'He ’, so he always flaunted it to the outside world and said that he called it ‘where does the cloud go’, and many people know about it.”

"Hahaha, I'm quite embarrassed to hear that." Cheng Yun smiled, his eyes gently caressing the photos in the wallet, "I always put my wife's photos in the wallet, telling myself that no matter what happens We must work hard to survive everything. Therefore, no matter what happens in the next five days, everyone must not give up, because our relatives, friends and lovers are waiting for us to go back."

This time, the expressions on the faces of the practitioners who did not belong to Shuguang finally changed a little.

But the expression on Su Zimo's face was a little weird.

Because... the girl in the photo who was hugging Cheng Yun intimately is obviously the Cheng Jingmeng he had met in the previous nightmare world!So, not only is that girl not surnamed "He", but she also has the same surname as Cheng Yun.

Thinking of the girl who was tortured to the point of collapse by the "slave brand", and thinking of Cheng Yun's sincere expression just now, Su Zimo knew that someone must have lied.

If it was Cheng Yun who lied... what was his purpose?

"call--"

Before everyone could react, a gust of wind suddenly blew through the enclosed hall space, half of the candles in the hall of the villa went out instantly, and darkness descended on the nightmare world.
