death like wind

Chapter 1 Temple 1

The pattering rain hit the eaves, and the air was filled with a damp and rotten smell.There is a small ruined temple in the wilderness. I don’t know which god is enshrined in the temple. It looks very evil. It is obviously a female face, and it is indeed kind-hearted, but it just makes people feel that if you stare at it for a long time, you will be stared at by it. What's even weirder is that it holds a blood-stained stone rabbit in its hand. The rabbit is as vivid as a stone statue, and it can be seen that the stone rabbit's expression is extremely frightened.

In the quiet and eerie scene, only the sound of falling rain can be heard, which highlights this unusual silence even more.

In the middle of the ruined temple, stood a weird young man in a strange costume, wearing a cartoon version of one-piece pajamas, and holding a plush bikini bunny doll in his hand, which was out of tune with the surrounding atmosphere.

The boy was so absent that he rubbed his sleepy eyes and yawned. He felt a sense of being spied on, and he raised his head obediently, and saw the evil god on the shrine. The cold wind passed by his neck , shivered involuntarily, the drowsiness in his eyes gradually dissipated, he was dazed for a moment, and waved his hand to say hello: "Hi~"

The feeling of being stared at faded away, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down on the straw mat in front of the statue. As a result, his butt hurt for a while after being knocked down, he squatted up and scraped away the haystack, revealing a hole on the muddy ground below. The white thing is hard and the material is a bit special. When the young man knocked it, the sound was crisp and clear, and doubts flashed in those beautiful peach eyes, wondering who buried the treasure here?

He stood up and looked around for an iron piece, then squatted back and patiently dug the hole, his movements were very skillful and smooth, as if he was proficient in this way.As the hole got bigger and bigger, the whole thing was finally revealed. It was a skull, the flesh hadn't completely rotted, there were moths wriggling in the eye sockets, and the stench came over the face.

……

The boy slowly buried it back again.

"Hehe." There was a strange and hoarse chuckle suddenly, he turned his head suddenly, and there was nothing behind him, as if it was just his auditory hallucination, he slowly raised his head to look at the evil god statue, startled.

He remembered that the god seemed to be smiling with his mouth closed, but recently he grinned open until his cheeks, revealing his blood-stained white teeth. A chill ran up his spine along the soles of his feet, and his intuition told him to hurry up. leave here.

But it was still raining outside, and he would be drenched as soon as he went out. After hesitating for a while, he wrung his fingers and asked shyly, "Do you suggest that I change clothes here?"

Except for the sound of heavy rain pouring down, there was no voice to answer him, and he could even hear his own heartbeat in the silence that devoured everything. The young man seemed to be a little nervous, so he summoned up his courage and continued: "Assuming you agree, can you please?" You close your eyes, I'm...a little shy."

The air is freezing...

The feeling of peeping became more and more intense, making one's white hair stand on end, could it be... this god is like a voyeur?She was so strong that she wanted to see him undress in public?

The boy fell into deep thought.

Rubbing the goose bumps on her arms, she glanced at the statue again. Her mouth opened wider and wider, and she seemed to lean forward. A burst of lightning pierced the night sky and briefly illuminated the statue. It was only then that the stone statue was splashed with a layer of dark red sticky liquid, which seemed to be dried blood.

After the lightning, the ruined temple went dark again, followed by muffled thunder, mixed with the inaudible sound of stones falling to the ground, like an early warning, finally made the pretty boy with rough nerves in front of him feel the danger.

The sky is getting darker and darker, the wind blows the dust in the ruined temple and the dilapidated flags and flags, and the wooden door creaks, which is hoarse and ugly in the silent environment, like a long and dead voice screaming, the sound of the rain is getting louder and louder. Hastily, urging him to leave.

The young man swallowed, blocked the heart that was jumping into his throat, and took a few steps back, this time he saw with his own eyes that the stone statue's eyeballs moved, looking at him like a smile that wasn't a smile!The boy immediately raised his breath and plunged into the rain curtain, and his high-pitched shout came from outside: "It's not good for men and women to be in the same room, slip away first!"

The rain mercilessly slapped his immature cheeks, and the cold hurt his bone marrow. The darkness behind him drove him forward all the way. It seemed that there was an evil ghost hiding inside, and he ran until his legs lost consciousness. He didn't dare to stop for a moment, his intuition told him that as long as he stopped, he would be corroded by the darkness to nothing.

The feeling of being spied on could not be shaken off no matter what, he was like a prey being watched and teased by wild beasts, running wildly in the mud.

The grass with thorns grows wildly outside the temple, and the velvet sticks all over his body when he touches it. The originally clean pajamas become colorful and colorful, and the barbs penetrate into the fabric and rub against the delicate skin, but he can no longer care about the pain. He slipped and fell into the mud, leaving his body in a mess.

Dead!

The young man clings to the bikini bunny doll, shrinks his neck and closes his bright peach eyes in despair, but the expected pain never comes, he opens his eyes in a daze, and sees the darkness stop at his feet side, not an inch forward.

A tall and slender figure in the darkness danced and yelled at him. Seeing that he froze, he pushed the darkness connecting the sky and the ground forward. The boy immediately took his feet back, hesitating for a while There was a sound, and the small face was so pale that he said "thank you" and stood up and continued to run desperately.

The darkness chased him again. When the boy ran slower, the speed of darkness covering the earth would also slow down. When the boy ran faster, it also became faster.

The boy finally realized something was wrong... That thing seemed to be playing tricks on him?So he slowed down, until finally he walked slowly, and even made a face at the shadow behind him: "You ghost is too unscrupulous, you will be resigned if you do this."

The strange figure in the darkness followed behind him cowardly, yet he was a little bit aggrieved.

The boy ignored it and thought about finding a place to shelter from the rain.

The sudden heavy rain was strange, cold like ice slag, and it fell on his skin like termites were eating his flesh and blood, causing pain and numbness.He was drenched to the ground, and the coldness pervading his body became more intense in this mysterious world. Even though he wasn't that scared at this time, it was physically creepy.

Finally, a bright light appeared ahead, attracting the lost to pry in.Those were two red lanterns, hung at the gate of the village entrance, and they still radiated an unfailing light even in the heavy rain, like the scarlet eyes of giant beasts, staring at the intruding outsiders.

And the darkness covering the world behind him seemed to be stimulated, and he rushed towards the young man crazily, with a sense of crisis rushing to the top of his head, the young man's scalp was numb and he reacted in an instant, and he ran wildly again.

Even though he knew the danger, the red light was the only destination, and there was no other way to go. The boy turned the stuffed rabbit he was holding into a miniature pendant and hung it around his neck, and crashed into this place without hesitation. In a remote small village.The darkness behind him was driven away by the lights above his head, and he stopped outside the village unwillingly.

The young man breathed a sigh of relief, panting with his knees propped up, his brain went blank under the extreme hypoxia, and the smell of rust in his throat hit his nose, making him suspect that he would be able to cough up a pool of blood in the next second.

Master asked him to run ten laps around the mountain every day. The task was really not to torment him with nothing to do. He used to be lazy and hide under the shade of a tree after two laps. Now he knows the importance of physical fitness in the nightmare world. When he returns home, he must diligently complete the tasks assigned by his master.

When he was secretly setting the flag, a rough palm suddenly patted his shoulder heavily, which made him jump up on the spot in fright, and turned his head suddenly to put himself in a defensive state.However, there was no scourge behind him. There was a tall man holding an umbrella standing there, except for the scary scar on his face, he didn't look malicious.

The man with the scar looked at him coldly, and said, "Come with me."

The young man hesitated for a while, but still followed, he was so familiar that he got under the umbrella, looked at the hot breath of the man with the scar, and confirmed that he was a living person, so he said: "My name is Su Jin. Shan, what's your name?"

The scarred man led the way without looking sideways, and his voice was as cold as ever: "Long Xiao."

Su Jin could feel that his attitude was like that of a dying person, and she didn't want to waste his attention on him, and even rejected him a little, so she stopped talking and obediently followed him all the way to the village, wiping her umbrella. walk around.

In a lifeless village, no pedestrians were encountered on the road, and there was no movement at all. The doors of every house were closed, and only a few scattered houses were lit, and when there were footsteps outside, they were immediately turned off. The darkness was like a lurking The giant beast swallowed the entire village in an instant.

Long Xiao turned a blind eye to everything around him, and the two of them walked in silence until they reached the only small attic with lights on.Long Xiao put away his umbrella and opened the door, and a crisp female voice greeted him immediately: "Brother Long, you are finally back."

Su Jin also followed into the house, and the room where he was muttering was suddenly dead silent, and everyone stared at him in a daze, with empty fear in their eyes.

The woman who just made the sound also stopped at the moment, opened her mouth slightly and looked at Su Jin in horror, as if she had encountered something terrible, pointed at him with trembling fingers, and asked in a trembling voice: "Brother Long, where did you pick it up?" Came back? Isn’t there enough of us?”

With him present, there are a total of 21.

Su Jin scanned the number of people, and instantly understood that one of them was not a "person".

Long Xiao stared around the crowd, the deterrence was strong enough, everyone shut their mouths and lowered their heads obediently, but the panic and suspicion on their faces couldn't be hidden no matter what.

Long Xiao said in a deep voice: "This kind of thing will always happen. If you love his mother, if you are afraid, just obediently wait for death in reality!"

A needle could be heard in the room, and for a moment, several girls who couldn't stand the fear suppressed their tears and made everyone who was already in panic and random suspicion even more irritable, and those who had a bad temper even lowered their voices and cursed.

Long Xiao didn't bother to look at them anymore, he went upstairs and returned to his room, the woman who spoke just now gave Su Jin a hard look, and quickly followed, the door slammed shut.

Under the vicious gaze, Su Jin felt that she seemed to be very unwelcome, so she sat down in the corner tactfully, and took the bowl on the table heartlessly and started to pick up the rice. He had been hungry all day.

Nightmare has a limit on the number of people. This is the dreamland of Xuanzi. It is mandatory for 20 people to complete it. It is only possible to be less, but it is impossible to be many. At this moment, 21 people appeared in this attic, which means that there is a "person" mixed in by Nightmare. This kind of situation is very common, but it is not easy to be accepted by people because it is not common. You have to fight against the weird nightmare world, deal with the unpredictable ghosts, and find the clues to break the dream through untold hardships, but you still have to doubt whether your teammates are human or not. Ghost, no one can stand it.

"Hello, my name is Mo Yan, let's form a team." A big boy sat up with a bright smile that had the magic power to dispel the cold.

Su Jin stopped chopping rice, looked up from the bowl and looked at him in surprise, with a grain of rice sticking to the corner of her mouth, she looked very cute, he didn't expect that someone would take the initiative to talk to him at such a time, and not treat him as a nightmare Thank you so much, I had already planned to go out on my own, but... love comes too fast like a tornado?

"Hey! Are you fascinated by my handsome appearance?" Mo Yan waved his hand in front of his eyes, and his smile became brighter.

Su Jin put down the bowl in embarrassment, and said frankly: "That's not true." Under Mo Yan's sad eyes, he said his name, and shook hands with him politely, "My name is Su Jin, This is my first dream, please take care of me."

Mo Yan was surprised for a moment, and asked, "Dream for the first time? Did no one take it with you? You should go to Nightmare with Yellow Letters to experience it."

Nightmare is divided into four levels: Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow, from high to low difficulty.Ordinary people can only pick up nightmares once every three months, and get a corresponding lifespan, while professional dream masters can pick up infinitely, but the number is also a difficulty threshold. Some seniors' nightmares with yellow characters even have the difficulty of mysterious characters.

"Well, I'm bold." Su Jin picked up the bowl of grilled rice again, and didn't want to say much about this topic, "It's you, everyone hates me, and you still form a team with me. It seems that you are someone who does great things .”

Mo Yan spared his head, and said straightforwardly: "Because you look like no threat, it's safer to team up with you than to team up with something who doesn't know if it's human or not. Besides, Nightmare is not so stupid when everyone is present. did it show up?"

Su Jin made a grimace and frightened him: "Maybe I follow your mentality? Are you afraid that I will eat you in the middle of the night?"

Mo Yan laughed out loud, and said while laughing: "You are so cute, you know that your baby face doesn't have any intimidating power when you make a funny face?"

Su Jin's self-esteem as a man was hit hard, she stared at him fiercely, and muttered with her mouth pursed: "What can I do about my face that my mother gave birth to?"

After getting to know each other, I learned that Mo Yan was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 19, and spent a lot of money to hire someone to take him into a nightmare, and gained a short lifespan. Later, he discovered that he had a dream-controlling physique. As a professional dream master, in three years, he has accumulated ten years of life.A few more orders will reach another threshold of difficulty.

Su Jin said that she was rescued by her master in a car accident, and her parents died in that car accident, so she went up to the mountain with her master to learn art.

"What is the reason for your lifespan to be exhausted?" Most of the newcomers to this industry are basically because their lifespan is approaching, so Mo Yan had to ask of course.

If the life expectancy is intact, how can they go to the weird and cruel nightmare world to seek life after narrowly escaped death.

However, Su Jin shattered his point of view in the next second.

"I didn't have any such symptoms, so I came to play." Su Jin casually took a piece of green vegetables and put them in his mouth, but his eyes dimmed for a moment when he spoke.

"Then why didn't your master come with you? Your master is too ambitious to let newcomers enter the dream of Xuanzi." Mo Yan said after hearing this.

Su Jin lowered her eyes to hide the slight sadness in her eyes, and replied briefly: "He can't sleep anymore."

There are no more than three situations in which a dream master cannot enter a dream.One is to have made a poisonous oath.The second is that the difficulty of nightmare has been brushed to the extreme.The third is that the body is not supported.

Seeing that he didn't want to talk about it, Mo Yan didn't ask any more questions, and chatted with him about other things. At this time, most of the people in the hall had dispersed, and Su Jin was brought back by Mo Yan after dinner. In the room, after taking a hot shower, I lay down on the bed and didn't want to move anymore.

According to Mo Yan, they have been here for two days now, and they haven't found any key clues. As long as they don't go out to kill themselves at night, they will be fine if they sleep until dawn.

After saying good night to each other, they fell into a drowsy sleep.

A good night's sleep, except for the faint nursery rhymes heard in the half dream and half awake, everything is safe.The next day, he was awakened by a scream piercing the sky.

The author has something to say:

Once upon a time, there was a literati who let himself go and wrote an article, and as he flew, he became a mosquito, aha
