Chapter 2: Your Shadow

The night breeze blew gently, blowing Pang Chao and Xiao Nan's clothes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Everything around seemed to be quiet, leaving only Xiao Nan's trembling voice.

"After graduating, instead of going to college, I stumbled up and became a mercenary in an organization. Then, with my popularity at the time and my desperate completion of the task, I soon became somewhat famous in the mercenary world. Then I met the same well-known leopard. ”

"Jia Ruyu?" Pang Chao frowned, "He also became a mercenary?" ”

"Yes. Soon after, a man named S gave us a task with a bounty of hundreds of millions. Little Leopard and I didn't resist the temptation of money and took on this task. Xiao Nan's eyes were a little confused, as if the memory was in front of him.

"It was in a desert on the border with Egypt, where someone found a strange pyramid. Mr. S's mission requires us to survey it. We didn't think much about it and went in without much effort. ”

"But strange things happened, and the companions mysteriously disappeared one after another, and in the end only me and the little leopard remained. But we also got to the very heart of the pyramid. ”

"It was a stone chamber, and the walls of the stone chamber were covered with frescoes. We discovered a big secret by translating the murals. ”

"What's the secret?" Pang Chao asked cautiously.

"The Seven Deadly Sins that have appeared in countless texts." Xiao Nan said word by word.

Pang Chao suddenly frowned, and the green tendons on the back of his hand burst out. But the next moment he was back to normal, "Seven deadly sins, what is that?" ”

"A horrible thing." Xiao Nan stroked his forehead, "The seven deadly sins are divided into lust, greed, gluttony, jealousy, arrogance, laziness, and anger, and they each represent a demon in the demon world. Every deadly sin has something to compare with each other, and when I saw something on the mural that looked like a lighthouse, a wine glass, and a pair of scissors, that might be what one of the seven deadly sins represents. There was a mural that depicted seven people together, and then everything around them was shattered and shattered. In fact, there are many examples in reality, such as the Tunguska explosion, such as the mysterious explosion of Wang Gong's mansion, which I suspect are all caused by the seven deadly sins. ”

"Then why are you so sure that the seven deadly sins are true?" Pang Chao asked.

"Because I saw one of the items in the mural, the red wine glass, which was on a stone platform in the center of this stone chamber, and there was a strange red liquid coming out." Xiao Nan Road.

"Blood?" Pang Chao suddenly felt a chill rising from his back to the back of his head.

"That's what we thought at the beginning, and even those of us who had seen everything were scared. But the leopard was the first to react, if it was blood, there must be this smell of blood, but we didn't smell it. ”

"Then something terrible happened. A skeleton suddenly emerged from the ground, thinking that the two of us were rushing towards us, and we were stunned for a moment before we reacted and scattered it with a heavy strafing of submachine gun fire. However, several skeletons emerged from the ground, some with three hands and some with two heads. And that's not even the scariest thing, something came out of the ground, and we found out that it was our vanished teammates, but they were all mutated. ”

"At this time, a fire from nowhere filled the mural room, and I was burned at that time, and I ran out alone, despite the little leopard. The fire grew bigger and bigger, and the smoke and flames entered my guts. I don't even know how I got out, and the moment I saw the light, I fainted. When I woke up again, I found myself in the hospital, dressed in bandages and without a single piece of good meat on my body. ”

"It's a miracle that you survived." Pang Chao couldn't help but say.

"But the leopard is missing, and for some reason I don't think the leopard is dead, but somewhere in this world." Xiao Nan lowered his eyes slightly and said, "I have been looking for news of Mr. J for the past three years, but this Mr. J seems to have never appeared in this world at all, no matter how I look for him, I can't find him." ”

"Did he give you the money?" Pang Chao asked suddenly.

"Yes, but I didn't find any useful information through my bank account check, what's wrong?" Xiao Nan asked.

"No, if he doesn't give you money, I can help you fight the lawsuit, and I'm very good at dealing with property disputes." Pang Chao pushed his eyes and said seriously.

“。。。”

"Don't worry, Xiao Nan, the little leopard won't die so easily." Pang Chao comforted.

"I hope so."

At this moment, the other end of Qingcheng.

The streetlights on the side of this street have been broken for a few years, and the street is immersed in darkness. Sometimes there are also a few high-pitched cat meows in the streets, which make people shudder.

At this time, a couple leaned on each other and walked into the dark street, and the strange cry of the wild cat made the girl burrow into her boyfriend's arms.

The boy was called a cool, and when he was about to make a move, he suddenly stopped.

The girl was so surprised by her boyfriend, and she looked at him and was also stunned.

It was a woman, dressed in a long white dress, with a faint white light all around her, dancing of unknown kind, she was so beautiful, so beautiful that even the darkness could not bear to envelop her.

"Hey, don't look at it." The girl came back to her senses first, and looked at her boyfriend's obsessive gaze and couldn't help but say slightly angrily.

"Good, beautiful." The boy muttered.

"You..." The girl flashed the boy in a moment of anger, and the boy suddenly sobered up and slapped back with his hand.

"What are you, what do you see, can you still control what Lao Tzu sees?" The boy said angrily.

"You men don't have a good thing." The girl covered her slightly swollen face, and her eyes were filled with tears.

The two argued violently, not noticing that the woman had arrived at their side at some point.

"Break up, break up, I've long seen you unpleasant." The girl tilted her head and saw the bloodless, pale, and beautiful face that was close at hand.

"Ahh The girl let out a scream of fear.

The boy didn't pay attention to the girl, but took the woman's hand, "Hello, my name is... ”

Before he could finish speaking, the boy shuddered violently, and in a panic he lowered the woman's hand and took several steps back.

"Why are your hands so cold?" The boy exclaimed, he felt that instead of a hand, he was pulling up a block of ice.

"yes, because I'm dead... The woman let out a shrill laugh. Then the screams of the couple filled this dark alley.

。。。

"What do you think?" Xin Yuanling put down the newspaper in her hand and looked at the man in a suit and leather shoes opposite.

Pang Chao took a sip of Rauchbier, the unique aroma of smoky ham filling his mouth, "It could be a perverted murderer." ”

"But the police retrieved the street cameras there, and no one showed up except the couple. Besides, the couple was just knocked unconscious, and they didn't even have less money on their bodies, why do you say that? ”

"Anyway, there seems to be a lot of news like this lately." Store manager Ren Yuan walked out from behind the counter, still holding several newspapers from different periods in his hand.

"You think it's going to be some kind of paranormal event?" Xin Yuanling suddenly said gloomily.

"God knows." Pang Chaodao.

"Oh, no, it's a huge lawyer... Xin Yuanling suddenly looked at Pang Chao: "Shouldn't you go back to Canghai?" Why are you still staying in Qingcheng? ”

"Well, something happened to the law firm, and it's closed for the time being. I'm going back alone, so it's better to play more here. Pang Chao said vaguely.

"Huh? What about Xiao Nan, isn't he with you? Ren Yuan looked around, but he didn't see the familiar figure.

"He," Pang Chao raised the glass and looked at the yellowish liquid in the glass, "to see his girlfriend." ”

Gyeongseong Airport

Xiao Nan sat in the café at the airport, fiddling with the coffee in front of him. The mellow coffee flavor mixed with the fragrant milk flavor made him salivate.

"Don't drink what you can't drink." The little hand that had been plain white took the coffee cup in front of him, and Xiao Nan looked up.

It was a petite woman, dressed in a tracksuit and a white baseball cap, with a jet-black ponytail hanging from the back of her head to her shoulders.

"Xiaoyu, are you back? I've been waiting for you for a long time. Xiao Nan smiled brightly when he saw her.

"I didn't come back, but the original flight was delayed, so I had to fly to Qingcheng to see you first, and then take a plane here immediately." The woman handed her passport to Xiao Nan.

“Sahar？ Dawn in German? How good is your Chinese name Li Yiyu, why do you want to change your name? Xiao Nan looked at the name on his passport and couldn't help asking.

"My name has been in and out of the country too many times, and I will be suspicious of people who want to change my name." Li Yiyu sat opposite Xiao Nan and smiled at him.

"When are you leaving?" Xiao Nan asked.

"What? When they finally came back, you asked me when I was leaving. Li Yiyu said dissatisfied.

"Just want to see how long I've been with you." Xiao Nan raised his forehead slightly, "I won't see you for a few months as soon as you fly, I think about it very much." ”

Li Yiyu smiled sweetly: "The plane at eight o'clock tonight." ”

"Two hours?" Xiao Nan looked at the electronic watch on his wrist, and it was eight o'clock in an hour.

"yes, but I'll be back soon this time, and I can rest for a long time when I get back." Li Yiyu crossed his fingers with his hands.

"Okay, let's go early and come back early." Xiao Nan smiled slightly.

"Xiao Nan... Li Yiyu had an expression of wanting to speak and stopping.

"How?" Xiao Nan asked.

"Is it okay now?" Li Yiyu blinked and asked.

"Nope." Xiao Nan said seriously, "You're about to wait for the plane, you can email me about that." ”

"Oh, then you have to take your medicine on time." Li Yiyu smiled and nodded, "And eat more fruits." ”

"Got it." Xiao Nan stroked his brows slightly, "Let's go, let's have dinner first, the things on the plane are not delicious." ”

As night fell, Gyeongseong rejuvenated its other side. People who love nightlife come together to enjoy the night in Qingcheng.

Xiao Nan was walking alone on the street, he had just sent Li Yiyu away, and now he was walking back to Jingyue Villa.

He looked at the moon, and the moon reflected the sun's light on the ground.

There are snowflakes in the sky, how can it snow in autumn?

At the other end of the road, Pang Chao was wearing a black windbreaker, walking aimlessly, and the excitement around him seemed to have nothing to do with him.

He saw a jewelry store, stopped, and looked through the glass at the brilliant gems in the display case. His eyes suddenly stopped on a ring, which was a diamond ring of the Forever type of Dare, a model from a few years ago.

Its biggest feature is that it is bound to a man's ID card, in order to indicate that it is the only one in a lifetime, and it is given to the only love in my heart.

Not only did he smile slightly, but buried his face in his scarf. It was a big red scarf, this style is not suitable for boys to wear red, but this is almost Pang Chao's favorite thing.

"According to the previous me, this kind of price is sky-high." Pang Chao looked at the diamond ring and smiled lightly, and said.

"Huh?" He furrowed his brow and leaned his palm forward, but his hand stopped in mid-air as if it had touched a transparent wall.

"Barrier?" Pang Chao's palms are turned, perpendicular to the ground. Then he felt a wave of dizziness and found himself on another street.

That's a bit far-fetched to say that it's another street, because this street is no different from the original street, and even the Darui diamond ring displayed in the window next to him is still the original model, but Pang Chao still feels the difference.

It was a chill that went deep into the soul, and the source of this chill was not just the temperature, but the atmosphere of this street. There are also a lot of people in this street, but these people seem to have no language, they can't speak, and they don't make a sound even though they are overcrowded.

Suddenly, a sad song came from nowhere. The singing voice is weak but the tone is connected, and the emotional tragedy can drive people's emotions.

"It's... Pang Chao narrowed his eyes and walked in the direction where the song came.

It was a large fountain, and several jets of water erupted from the pool until it reached a few meters above the ground before descending. The fountain and the pool water lap against each other, emitting bursts of mist. The surrounding lights are refracted by the mist, forming a natural stage in this small place.

A stunningly beautiful woman came out of nowhere, dancing in this mist. Her dancing is so beautiful and moving, making the stars in the sky colorless.

"Who is it?" Pang Chao turned around sharply and grabbed a hand stretched out to his shoulder, and when he looked back, he realized that it was Xiao Nan.

"Brother Chao... Do you know who she is? Xiao Nan's voice trembled a little.

"Who is it?" Pang Chao was secretly surprised, who was this woman who could make Xiao Nan, who was usually so calm, so excited?

"She's Xiaoyuan's wife, how can she... Speaking of which, Xiao Nan didn't dare to say any more.

Pang Chao also frowned fiercely, and pulled Xiao Nan to take a step back. He had heard Ren Yuan mention him before that he had passed away ... Wife.

"Save him, please save him." The woman suddenly stopped dancing and looked at the two of them.

"He? Ren Yuan? Pang Chao asked.

"His soul has been controlled by demons, please save him." The woman's figure became more and more illusory, and finally returned to nothingness.

The surrounding space seemed to be shattered, Pang Chao and Xiaonan were dazzled, and suddenly found that they appeared in the center of the original street, and everything around them returned to normal.

"What's going on?" Pang Chao was stunned for a moment and asked.

"I don't know, let's go find Xiaoyuan first." Xiao Nan also had a solemn face, and stopped a taxi and went up.

bar

Ren Yuan knelt in the wine cellar, holding his head in both hands, his body trembling strongly, as if something was about to rush out.

"No, don't try to control me." Ren Yuan slammed the wine rack next to him, and the shelf made of precious wood broke inch by inch, and finally turned into powder and fell to the ground.

"Ahh Ren Yuan roared in pain, and then his head suddenly drooped.

Raising his head again, his eyes changed. It is no longer as gentle as it used to be, but with endless evil intentions.

"This human soul is so strong, I wouldn't have looked for his body if I knew it." The voice is still Ren Yuan's voice, but it feels completely different.

It felt like he was crawling out of hell.

"This time I can completely control this body, unlike before, as soon as I want to devour other people's lives, this little guy will desperately stop it." 'Ren Yuan' said.

In the middle of his hand, a huge blood-stained scissors appeared in his hand, and he waved the scissors, and a person slowly took shape, it was Ren Yuan's wife!

"Snort." 'Ren Yuan' smiled, and was just about to move, when suddenly a strong light descended from above, enveloping the woman.

The corners of the woman's mouth rose slightly, revealing a relieved smile, and then slowly disappeared under the bright light.

A strong pain hit Ren Yuan's brain, and his eyes suddenly became clear. But at this time, he was so painful that he didn't even have the strength to stand. He fell to his knees, sobbing and chanting the same name.

"I didn't expect you to be the jealousy of the Seven Deadly Sins, Store Manager Ren Yuan." A familiar voice came from the ceiling, and the ceiling somehow shattered a big hole, "But such a great power, you actually use it to create false illusions." ”

"It's not some fantasy, Lian'er she's alive, she's still alive. You see, she was still here just now. Ren Yuan yelled at the ceiling.

"It's sad, don't you know? The power of the scissors of the world is to create the illusion of the dead. The man jumped through the hole in the ceiling.

"Yes..." Ren Yuan's eyes widened, and the next moment, he only felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, and he lost consciousness.

The man picked up the scissors that had fallen to his side and smiled with satisfaction. With a snap of his fingers, several men in black broke in and carried Ren Yuan out.

"Huh." The man took out a lighter from his pocket, lit it and threw it away, just in the wine that Ren Yuan had just broken.

"Boom!"

Orange-red sparks ignited instantly, igniting everything around them.
