Chapter 2: There Are Ghosts in Dreams

"What the hell!"

When he touched the third eye with the center of his eyebrows closed, Yue Zheng's heartbeat seemed to stop for a moment, and the whole person was so shocked that he almost jumped under the intense weirdness and panic.

No normal human being is indifferent to the growth of a third eye, except for some secondary two teenagers, which is the normal reaction of the vast majority of people.

Especially at this moment, Yue Zheng's palm clearly felt that although the third eye in the center of his eyebrows was still closed and not completely opened, the eyeballs under the crack were squirming slightly uncontrollably under him, and that feeling was as if the eyes in his eyebrows were an independent lifeform!

"Ah Yue, stay where you are and don't move!"

The soldiers, who had also noticed the abnormality in the center of Yue Zheng's eyebrows, reacted more nervously, and the captain Luo Cheng suddenly shouted urgently:

"Hold on, you must hold on to me!"

The hurried voice floated through the night sky, and under the dim light, Yue Zheng, who was startled by the third eye, did not respond to the other party's words, and his chest rose and fell rapidly.

Damn it...... crossed over, borrowed the corpse to return the soul, and became Yang Jian...... Do you want to be so exciting?

The soldiers of the patrol were waiting for each other, and in the unspeakable silence, facing more than a dozen eyes as if they were facing a great enemy, Yue Zheng covered his forehead on the surface, lowered his head and gasped for breath.

What happened to the original owner of this body?

The Ah Yue in their mouth is dead, what should I do?

In just a few seconds, Yue Zheng's brain spun rapidly, and his heart calmed down.

He had already figured out in a short period of time that since even such incredible things as crossing over and borrowing corpses to resurrect souls had happened to him, what could it be to grow a third eye?

What's more, although he couldn't figure out what was going on, he realized that he had now seemed to have been treated as an uncontrollable monster by the people in front of him, and he could not guarantee that his actions would not stimulate the nervous nerves of the people in front of him.

The desire to survive is the instinct of every life, and Yue Zheng doesn't want to be inexplicably beaten into a sieve just after crossing over.

Thinking of this, Yue Zheng didn't have time to read more fragments of the original owner's remaining memories, and immediately raised his head in a hurry, with pain and confusion on his face:

"Cheng, Brother Cheng, and everyone......? What's wrong with me?"

Clearly heard Yue Zheng's response, Luo Cheng and the tense patrolmen present looked at each other in surprise and joy, and they were just about to speak, when there was a shouting sound from afar on the street not far away.

Luo Cheng turned his head suddenly, and his expression was relieved:

"The Demon Slayer is here!"

Yue Zheng immediately looked up, and vaguely saw that on the long dark street ahead, there were several vague figures running quickly, dexterous and swift like a black panther preying in the dark, not like a normal human at all.

In just a few blinks of an eye, in Yue Zheng's sight, the panther-like figures crossed the hundred-meter-long street, directly crossed the encirclement formed by more than a dozen patrol members in the wind and howled, appeared less than ten meters in front of him, and then Qi Qi locked himself with a cold and vigilant gaze.

These are five men with a solemn temperament and a fierce spirit. They wore standard close-fitting leather armor, covered with close-fitting suits similar to combat uniforms, and each of them was equipped with short-barreled muskets and various cold weapons of different lengths around their waists, showing a fully armed appearance.

In particular, a bearded man who looked like the leader was tall, with bright eyes, and a pair of eyes that looked unusually bright in the dim light. Locked by this person's gaze, Yue Zheng felt as if he was being targeted by a descending tiger, and goosebumps broke out all over his body.

Demon Slayer...... Slay demons and eliminate demons, there are demons in this world?

Am I among those who want to be purged?

Can I fucking pick a new opening?

Secretly looking at the five newly arrived dangerous people, Yue Zheng, who felt deeply uncomfortable, was awe-inspiring in his heart, and he didn't dare to act rashly.

From everything that happened in just a few minutes after crossing over, he already had a faint feeling that this was a strange world that could not be judged by common sense, and now with the abnormality of his body, the arrival of these people would mean even greater trouble!

"Is this the kid who has the problem?"

Of course, I didn't know the uneasy thoughts in Yue Zheng's heart at this moment, among the five demon slayers who entered with a strong attitude, the tiger-like bearded man led by a pair of eyes stared straight at Yue Zheng back and forth, his eyes focused on the blood mark on the center of his eyebrows, and his eyes narrowed:

"Slight mutation...... He's on your patrol?"

"That's right, it's on our team. In the first half of the night, Yue Zheng suffered from a cold, so I let him rest in the sentry box first, and this happened. ”

After the arrival of the demon slayer, Luo Cheng waved his hand and took all the patrol soldiers who were on the verge of the enemy to take the initiative to retreat, and at the same time replied uncertainly:

"Deputy Lieutenant Tiger, Ah Yue should have encountered those things in his dream, and he was almost out of control and crazy before, but now he seems to have gotten rid of the influence of those things and regained his senses, but we are not completely sure, you see......"

"Came to your senses, Xu Liang, how's it going?"

The burly man known as the Tiger Lieutenant raised his eyebrows in surprise and looked at the other young demon slayer beside him.

The demon slayer known as Xu Liang had a handsome face, and he was holding a crystal jade pendant in his hand and staring at Yue Zheng carefully, or Yue Zheng's abnormal eyebrows, and said in surprise:

"Strange...... Inspired Jade barely reacted, there were no such things on his body, and the contamination process seemed to be forcibly terminated. How did he do it?"

As soon as the words fell, the other demon slayers present all moved their eyes slightly, a little surprised.

Deputy Lieutenant Tiger's gaze was still sharp as he stared at Yue Zheng, his tight and rough face eased a little, he pressed his big hand on the handle of the knife at his waist, and took a step forward:

"Yue Zheng, I'm the deputy lieutenant of the Demon Slaying Hall, do you remember who you are and what happened before?"

I don't know......

The five demon slayers who were very dangerous at first glance shouted and shouted to kill without coming up, Yue Zheng first breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly thought of a statement based on the little memory he had just received:

"I ...... I remember that today it was time for me to patrol the night with Brother Cheng and them. ”

"I was unwell in front of me, as if I was asleep in the sentry box, and I had a dream in which I felt like I was about to drown, and I wanted to wake up but I couldn't wake up......"

And then ...... Then ......"

Yue Zheng said intermittently, then raised his hand to cover his forehead, and said hoarsely:

"I don't know...... I can't remember what happened next......"

Sometimes, confession is the best way to solve a problem, and of course, confession also requires skill. This world is so weird, as a traveler who borrows the corpse to return his soul, he naturally does not dare to reveal his true origin, so he can only deal with it in this way with half-truths and vague words.

"Is my memory damaged as a result of mental trauma?"

I saw Deputy Lieutenant Tiger frown, and then nodded clearly:

"That's right. Your breathing level is too low, and even if you are lucky enough to resist the invasion of those things, you will inevitably pay a price, and you are lucky to be able to regain your sanity compared to it. ”

Is that okay too?

Yue Zheng, who was still worried about whether he would be recognized, didn't expect the other party to react like this, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

He still hasn't had a lot to digest about the memory of the original owner, Ah Yue, and he was worried that the other party would find out the root cause and not be able to deal with it, but he didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to come up with a reason for himself.

"There is no problem with him for the time being, and the alarm can be lifted. ”

Yue Zheng's heart was still secretly happy, and Liang Hu, who had basically determined something, flashed slightly, and suddenly waved his hand:

"Luo Cheng, you handled it very well, we have to take him back to the Demon Slayer Hall first. ”

Luo Cheng, who was not far away, nodded. At the same time, under the gaze of Deputy Lieutenant Hu, the young demon slayer who was called Xu Liang before suddenly untied a pair of silver-white strange shackles from behind his back and slowly walked towards Yue Zheng.

Faced with this situation, Yue Zheng's heart sank slightly, and he said with an uneasy look on his face: "Deputy Lieutenant Tiger, what are you going to do with me?"

"Don't be nervous, it's the rule. ”

Walking towards Yue Zheng step by step, Xu Liang, the demon slayer holding shackles, said peacefully:

"Generally speaking, most of the ordinary people who encounter those things in their dreams will go crazy and lose control, but you are lucky. But we'll need to take you back to the Demon Slayer Hall for a few days of quarantine observation, just in case, understand?"

Not far away, Luo Cheng was also worried about Yue Zheng's unwise behavior, and also said loudly: "Ah Yue, do what a few demon slayers say, don't be afraid, you will be fine!"

...... you encounter those things in your dreams?

The night was as cold as water, and letting the shackles lock his wrists, Yue Zheng's heart was a little cold.

This is not only because he has just crossed over and fallen into a passive situation that he can't help himself, but more importantly, whether it is what happened to the original owner or the reaction of others, it all shows that in this grotesque world, it seems to be ...... Will you bump into ghosts in your dreams?
