Volume 1: The Origin of Nightmares Chapter 30: The Ghost Bride (I)

"What's going on? Why is there no signature on the payment?" flipped through the information from beginning to end, but Ding Xiaofan still didn't see the client's name appear on it. The place where the sender's username should have been marked is still blank.

"Could it be that the client deliberately didn't fill in his ID in order to create a sense of mystery?" Seeing this, Liu Lixue said her conjecture.

Hearing this, Shen Xiaolang immediately denied it, "Impossible, but if you want to register an account on the Ghost Hunting Alliance website, you must fill in a username that meets the specifications, even if you use the space bar." What's more, this one doesn't even have a username!"

"You mean, this letter of entrustment is actually a prank?" Hearing Shen Xiaolang's words, Ding Xiaofan asked suspiciously.

"I'm not sure, maybe. All I know is that if we don't leave, the policemen on the street outside who are searching for our whereabouts will find this hotel!"

"If it's really a prank, then will we go to the place mentioned in the commission letter tonight?" asked Liu Lixue while taking out her room card and checking out in front of the bar.

"Of course we go! Anyway, we have to avoid the pursuit of TX and the police, so it's better to try our luck, in case it's true! The reward is a full 100,000!" Facing Liu Lixue's question, Ding Xiaofan said that he didn't want to give up the hard-won commission and high honorarium.

"But if it's not a prank, it's probably a trap set by the client. However, at this moment, the doctor, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly came up with his own idea.

After listening to the doctor's analysis, Ding Xiaofan's determination to win a reward of 100,000 yuan was suddenly shaken. "We're not afraid of traps, but now we're going to find a place to hide. As he spoke, Shen Xiaolang had already walked out of the hotel.

About ten minutes later, dozens of policemen, led by a middle-aged man wearing biochemical battle armor, walked into the hotel where Ding Xiaofan and his party had stayed.

"I'm Gao Yan, the leader of the eighth squad of the TX peacekeeping force, have you seen these three people?" Diameter walked to the bar, Gao Yan took out three photos from his pocket, and interrogated the hotel proprietress and a few waiters.

After looking at the photos carefully, the proprietress replied without thinking, "You said that the three of them, they came to my place last night to open a room." However, they had already checked out and left ten minutes earlier. What's the matter? They're not wanted!"

Hearing this, Gao Yan nodded and said, "That's right, they are SS-level dangerous people wanted by TX and the government." If you encounter it next time, be sure to contact us as soon as possible. But for your personal safety, try to avoid contact with them. ”

"I'll leave these three photos for your reference, and on the back is my mobile phone number. If you meet them again, remember to call me in time. Leaving a photo of Ding Xiaofan and others, Gao Yan turned around and prepared to leave the hotel.

"I didn't expect them to be wanted, no wonder the tall man who was with them wore a bird's beak mask all day long. When Gao Yan walked to the door of the hotel, the proprietress said to herself.

Hearing the words of the proprietress, Gao Yan and the dozens of policemen who followed him suddenly stopped in place.

"What did you just say? In addition to the three people in the photo, have you seen a person wearing a bird's beak mask? Is it true? Has anyone else in your shop been in contact with him?" Gao Yan asked the proprietress with extreme seriousness back in front of the bar.

Seeing Gao Yan's emotional appearance, the waiters were suddenly frightened and didn't dare to make a sound. Even the proprietress was scared and said, "Yes, yes." Last night, around eleven o'clock, a total of four people came to my store to open their rooms. ”

Taking a sip of iced coffee, trying to calm her nerves, the proprietress continued, "And that tall man in a strange black robe and a bird's beak mask is one of them. But I can't guarantee that no one but me has been in contact with him. ”

"How could this be, how could he be here?" muttered a few times, Gao Yan immediately issued an order to several policemen behind him, "You guys quickly check all the corners of this hotel to see if there is anything resembling a corpse." ”

"If you do find a zombie, call Dr. Yang immediately and ask her to help control the spread of the virus. But whether or not zombies are found, the entire city must be cordoned off and everyone wearing a mask must be strictly interrogated!" With that, Gao Yan quickly ran out of the hotel.

After receiving Gao Yan's order, the policemen hurriedly took out their batons and even guns, and began to divide into two ways, carefully inspecting the hotel rooms one by one.

Here, the police are inspecting the hotel. On the other side, as soon as he left the hotel, Gao Yan first ran in the direction of the west side of the hotel. Turning the picture to Ding Xiaofan and the others, they had already arrived in front of an old-fashioned inn about five kilometers west of the hotel.

"Home inn, how can such an ancient inn exist in this era?" Looking at the old-fashioned inn full of Republic of China style in front of him, Ding Xiaofan's face was full of doubts.

"Maybe it's a Republican-style theme hotel. Anyway, this inn will provide free food and lodging from 7 p.m. to 3 a.m. every day. Hearing this, Liu Lixue pointed to the billboard hanging at the door of the inn at home and said in surprise.

Providing free accommodation and food, this kind of activity is indeed a great temptation for Ding Xiaofan and others, who are penniless. "It's strange, why did this event end at three o'clock in the morning?" However, seeing the event on the billboard, Ding Xiaofan was very puzzled.

"Yes, under normal circumstances, isn't three o'clock in the morning the time when people are asleep?" At this time, Shen Xiaolang also realized that something was wrong.

"I guess the owner of the inn calculated that the guests would definitely not be able to check out before three o'clock, so there was this kind of activity. When the time comes, we just need to check out in time. Facing Ding Xiaofan and Shen Xiaolang's questions, Liu Lixue said as a matter of course.

"So, do you want to fight that guy here?" But while the three of them were still discussing whether or not to stay at the inn at home at night, the usually silent doctor suddenly turned around and pointed in the opposite direction of the inn with a scalpel.

At the same time, looking in the direction pointed by the doctor, Ding Xiaofan and the others unexpectedly found that a middle-aged strong man wearing a similar body armor and a dark red helmet was quickly approaching his side.

And this middle-aged strong man is none other than the S+-level peacekeeping soldier known as the human tank, Gao Yan. "Damn! Why are even TX's people chasing here!" Seeing the TX logo on the opponent's arm, Ding Xiaofan immediately turned into a demonic state, ready to fight at any time.

"Ding Xiaofan, you really have something to do with the King of Sin. Do you want to rely on that guy's power to escape from my pursuit, then I'll destroy it even with the Earth Soul Palace!" As soon as the words fell, Gao Yan suddenly pulled out the two steel knives on his waist.

It was too late, it was fast, and in less than ten seconds, there was only a short distance of five or six meters left between Gao Yan and Ding Xiaofan and the others. But at the moment when the battle between the two sides was about to break out, Ding Xiaofan fled into the woods next to the inn with Shen Xiaolang and Liu Lixue on his shoulders.

However, the strange thing is that seeing Ding Xiaofan and the others running into the woods next to the inn, Gao Yan, who has always been fearless, suddenly stopped moving forward and gave up the pursuit of Ding Xiaofan and the others.

"How could the entrance to Huangquan Road appear in this place? Forget it, anyway, so far, no one has been able to get out of Huangquan Road alive. Even if it's a demon!" Watching Ding Xiaofan and the others gradually disappear into the depths of the misty woods, Gao Yan couldn't help but sneer.

Turning the picture back, carrying Shen Xiaolang and Liu Lixue to the depths of the woods for a long time, Ding Xiaofan stopped and gently put down the two people who were carried on his shoulders.

"I hate it! Ding Xiaofan, why did you carry us to this gloomy ghost place! With your strength, can't you beat that big guy?" patting the dust on her body, Liu Lixue's displeased expression revealed a hint of shyness.

Hearing this, Shen Xiaolang on the side also looked at Ding Xiaofan who was panting curiously. "Now he really can't beat the tank. At this moment, the doctor, who ran into the woods with him, suddenly spoke, "Because the seal buried in his body has not been completely lifted." ”

"What are you talking about, do you also know about the seal?" Hearing the doctor's words, Shen Xiaolang looked very surprised.

"Well, not only that, but I know who sent us out of Seventeenth Confinement and sealed the demonic power within him. With that, the doctor glanced meaningfully at the thick fog that drifted around him.

"Sure enough, it's him! The only guy who can have such a powerful ability is the guy who is called "God". Knowing that the person who sealed Ding Xiaofan's demonic power was indeed a person with an ability called God, the expression on Shen Xiaolang's face suddenly became very solemn.

However, regarding the conversation between Shen Xiaolang and the doctor, Ding Xiaofan said disapprerovitically, "It doesn't matter who sealed it, now I just want to know how to get out of this forest." Because I feel like the fog here is getting thicker. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, his dark gray hair and blood-red eyes gradually returned to their original blackness. At the same time, not long after Gao Yan left, the entrance to the woods next to the inn gradually became transparent, and eventually turned into a bar called the Earth Soul Capital.

In the bar of the Earth Soul City, a teenager in a black suit with a difficult face is immersed in loud music and drinking with another girl in a sexy white casual suit.

But at this moment, the young man in the black suit suddenly turned around and looked back. "Strange, how do I feel like there are energy fluctuations in the vicinity of the bar. As he spoke, changing his previous dull appearance, the young man in the black suit looked around vigilantly.

"Where are the energy fluctuations of the enchantment?Dead Crow, are you doing the same old mistake again?" Seeing the young man in the black suit nervously take out something similar to a Gatling machine gun from his pocket, the girl in white sitting next to him asked strangely.

"The energy fluctuations are gone. Damn, dare to engage in such a small action on my territory, I must let his soul fly!" As he spoke, the young man in the black suit took out a grenade with a diameter of twenty centimeters from the same pocket.

The young man in the black suit suddenly frightened the guests who were still drinking in the bar and fled screaming. Turning the picture back to Ding Xiaofan and his party, as the fog became thicker and thicker, the visibility in the forest was only less than five meters at this time.

In addition, the forest, where a glimmer of sunlight could be seen just now, turned out to be as dark as late at night. "What's going on, what kind of place is this? Isn't it only two o'clock in the afternoon?" Pointing to the moon in the sky, Liu Lixue said in horror.

"Could it be that this is Huangquan Road! But how did we come to the legendary Huangquan Road?" Seeing the waning moon hanging in mid-air, constantly emitting green light, Shen Xiaolang hurriedly took out the compass from the black cloth bag.

The waning moon is in the sky, and the fog is around for thousands of miles. also entered the Yellow Spring, and the catastrophe was never recovered. What this four-word poem describes is the Huangquan Road mentioned by Shen Xiaolang just now. As a competent metaphysical scholar, Shen Xiaolang's understanding of Huangquan Road is naturally more proficient than ordinary people.

"What is Huangquan Road?Is there such a road in Jiangjin City?" Hearing Shen Xiaolang's words, Ding Xiaofan asked curiously.

Hearing this, Shen Xiaolang pointed to a thick fog located under the crescent moon and explained, "Have you seen that weird fog? There is a river there called Wangchuan River." The Wangchuan River is also known as the Yellow Spring, and above the Yellow Spring, there is the Nai He Bridge that leads directly to hell. ”

"Do you mean that the forest we are in at this time is the only way to connect the two worlds of yin and yang?!"

However, at this moment, a faint singing voice came from nowhere. In addition to the singing, a sound similar to wind chimes can be faintly heard. But if you listen closely, you will find that it is more like the sound of a woman crying than a wind chime.
