The second night came, and the only team of four people went to spend the night outside the castle according to the previous plan, and the four of them worked together to move the bed to the outside garden and find a place not far from the castle to lay down.

The four of them rarely communicated, and Lu Tianming, who had been analyzing non-stop from the beginning, rarely quieted down.

Lu Tianming and Mu Lan both think that the other party is very threatening, both of them are always calm performance, the difference is that Lu Tianming plays the role of a leader, and Mu Lan always keeps what comes to mind in his heart, because Mu Lan discovered the key task item "Diary of the Butler Leon" and the ability to think with a sharp eye occasionally, Lu Tianming will not underestimate this beautiful young girl.

On the premise of not knowing the real murderer, coupled with the threat of hiding Ah Feng in the shadows, the small team maintained a delicate balance.

Now there are murderers inside and monsters outside, Mu Lan also has to rely on team strength, this is the price of weakness, she even thought of a plan to go sideways, that is, to find a way to kill everyone, as the only surviving survivor, she is naturally the final winner, this idea was only vetoed by her in an instant, although she treats people indifferently, but she is not an anti-social element, the universal value education brought to her by the real society makes her unable to implement this plan, of course, even if she really wants to, thin arms and thin legs should not be able to beat these people.

I couldn't see the moon at night, and it was a cloudy day, but fortunately, it didn't rain, and the four of them didn't dare to make a fire, they all sat on the ground not far from each other, the black silhouette of the castle in the night was still oozing, Mu Lan touched the dagger in her pocket, which could give her a sense of security.

"It's almost 12 o'clock!" Xu Min glanced at the time on his phone and said quietly.

Because they were not sure if there were skeletons outside, the four of them did not dare to sleep, ready to survive the night, there was still some breeze outside, blowing the branches and grass, they were all vigilant, under the double pressure of spirit and sleepiness, the people were tormented and tormented.

"When is it a head?" Xu Min said haggardly, she almost collapsed after not eating for a day and staying up late, her body couldn't bear it anymore, and she had asked Lu Tianming for food several times in a row.

Lu Tianming saw that she was really pitiful, so he broke a small piece of bread and poured two bottles of water for her.

Bread and underwater belly, not only did not feel full, but made the stomach churn, only to feel more hungry, Mu Lan looked at the bread in Lu Tianming's hand, thinking that no matter where he went in the future, he would have to take food with him.

"Shhhh There's movement! Lu Tianming suddenly made a gesture to tell everyone not to make a sound.

Mu Lan became vigilant, it sounded like only the sound of the breeze blowing grass, she tried to look around, and her senses did not find anything wrong.

"Where?" Zhao Mengqi asked in a low voice.

"I didn't know, there was a strange sound just now." Lu Tianming said.

Mu Lan saw that Xu Min's mobile phone was lit up, and immediately asked her to turn off her mobile phone, the bright light was too conspicuous, and then she walked lightly up a gentle slope, the ancient castle was built on a high ground, from here you could see a relatively distant position, she raised her eyes to look, and then saw something terrifying.

In the distance outside the castle, there were many dots of green flames, and those skeletons were wandering outside, and the number was terrifying.

Mu Lan hurriedly told everyone about this discovery, encountering such a number of skeletons in this open area, it was impossible to fight at all, compared to the ancient castle, it was a little safer in the ancient castle, there was no way to spend the night outside, and the four of them had to return to the ancient castle again.

"It looks like every 12 a.m., these skeletons pop up!" Xu Min affirmed.

"Well, obviously, let's go back to ...... first," Lu Tianming just said when he suddenly noticed two green flames coming out behind Xu Min, and he ran directly towards the gate of the ancient castle without reminding him.

"Ahhh Xu Min screamed, her back pierced by the skeleton's bone claws, and she screamed in pain.

Xu Min's voice alarmed more skeletons, and in an instant, a lot of green light appeared from the trees, and Mu Lan ran away when she saw this.

At this time, she saw that there were a few more green fires on the side of the ancient castle out of thin air as if it were refreshing monsters, and the black mist spread, and the two skeletons rushed towards her and Lu Tianming.

Lu Tianming slashed at one of the skeletons with the wooden stick in his hand, blocking an attack, and at the same time the other skeleton pounced.

The target in Mu Lan's eyes was only the gate of the ancient castle, and at the critical moment, she burst out faster than usual.

"Hurry up! Hurry up! Mu Lan thought silently in her heart.

A black shadow flashed in the afterglow, Mu Lan subconsciously rolled to the side, she didn't have the skills of Ah Feng, this time she pounced on the mud, her chin bit her tongue hurt and she burst into tears, but she didn't dare to stop, she propped up her body with her hands and continued to run forward.

The door was close in front of her, Mu Lan quickly moved the wooden table that was stuck in the door and hurriedly dodged in.

She was afraid that the door would be locked from the inside, so that it would be easier to enter if there was an accident outside, and the scene of the first night was still vivid, when the door was locked for unknown reasons and had to jump out of the window to escape.

At this time, Zhao Mengqi also ran over, and did not see Lu Tianming, Mu Lan looked at Xu Min when she closed the door, she was no longer in human form at this time, the sharp claws of the skeleton man passed through her body, tearing wildly, the two arms had been broken, and the remaining two legs were still fluttering helplessly, and the skeleton man was actually going to tear her apart.

After the two locked the door, Zhao Mengqi vomited with a sigh of vomiting, but there was nothing in her stomach, she just retched and vomited gastric juice there, which made Mu Lan, who Zhao Mengqi carried, also a little uncomfortable, and she was busy covering her mouth to prevent herself from vomiting.

There is also a skeleton in the castle, maybe there is more than one, but it is better than the mountains and fields outside, Mu Lan patted Zhao Mengqi, and the two of them discussed the plan to find a hidden room to hide for the night.

I don't know where Ah Feng is now, if he is watching them secretly, Mu Lan was about to go up to the second floor when a faint voice came from the hall.

"Wait for me!"

It's Lu Tianming's voice! Isn't he dead? Mu Lan looked over, Lu Tianming was covered with color, and walked over holding his stomach, his voice was a little weak.

"I jumped out of the window to get in, and I was forced to go around the castle for a long time after I was forced to go around the castle for a long time!"

Lu Tianming is really fateful, Mu Lan thought, this person is scheming, if he is a murderer, it will be much trickier, she very much hopes that he died just now.

"What about food and water?" Mu Lan looked at Lu Tianming,

"It's still here." Lu Tianming patted the schoolbag on his back and said, "Don't worry, this is the hope of survival, I won't lose it, and we'll assign it as soon as we find a hiding place." ”

Mu Lan nodded, and as soon as the three of them were about to leave, Mu Lan noticed some strange differences.

The three of them went upstairs from the gate to the place where they were going to pass by Wang Qiang's body, Wang Qiang and Ah Feng died here during the day, and they had no energy and obligation to collect Wang Qiang's body, so they let the body lie on the floor, and at this time Mu Lan found that there was a blood hole in Wang Qiang's chest.

"Wang Qiang's corpse has passed?" Mu Lan wondered.

Zhao Mengqi and Lu Tianming also came over, both of them were shocked, and Lu Tianming immediately said: "After Wang Qiang died, we were all preparing things for the night outside, and no one touched his body. ”

"That's weird!" Mu Lan saw that Wang Qiang's chest seemed to have been hollowed out by something, and that position happened to be the heart.

An Junhang and Wang Qiang's hearts were taken out, what did this murderer want to do?

Does the Count's ritual require a human heart? It can only be like this, the terrible thing is that he stole Wang Qiang's heart under the noses of several people.

Mu Lan didn't stop thinking about these feet, the three of them just paused in the hall and went up to the second floor, they found a living room as a hiding place for tonight, this room has two doors, and it is close to the stairs, and it is also convenient to escape after the locked door is broken.

"I am reminded of the murder case in Renfu Community, where the murderer killed three people in a row and cut out the victim's heart and froze it in his refrigerator." Mu Lan remembered the sensational murder case the year before last, the murderer's behavior after the murder was a bit similar to now, but the case had been solved, the murderer had an antisocial personality and suffered from severe intermittent mental illness.

"Really? I haven't heard of it, but the murderer in this castle has nothing to do with the murder in that neighborhood. Lu Tianming said casually.

"I remember that! It's scary! The murderer ran away at first, and it took half a month to arrest him, which made the whole country panic. Zhao Mengqi sighed as she spoke: "It's just that I didn't expect that I would experience something similar." ”

Mu Lan thought of something, took a deep breath, and then touched Zhao Mengqi's hair, "Everything will end, we will all go back alive!" ”

Mu Lan turned her head around, looked at Lu Tianming and joked: "When the time comes, you have to have a good celebration, I remember that your specialty Huangdao beer in Ancheng is good, don't forget to bring us some then." ”

"yes, definitely." Lu Tianming nodded.

The atmosphere seems to be active again, I don't know if it's a bitter pleasure or something else, after closing the doors and windows, the three of them can still chat in a whisper.

"Outside, there seems to be a voice?" Mu Lan said suddenly, and she motioned for Lu Tianming to listen.

"Where?" Lu Tianming immediately approached the door and listened.

"No! You ......"

Lu Tianming covered his abdomen and looked at Mu Lan in disbelief.

Mu Lan used an excuse to relax Lu Tianming's vigilance, and then took advantage of the dagger he didn't spare to hide to sneak attack him, this time it was so fast and ruthless, Mu Lan pulled out the dagger and wanted to stab him a second time.

Lu Tianming suddenly smirked, his face became blurred, and he couldn't distinguish what he was, and then he quickly read something out of his mouth, and the black mist shrouded her, Mu Lan only felt that the scene in front of her had changed, and she could only see the boundless darkness.

A great sense of fear gripped her body, accompanied by all kinds of negative emotions, weakness, helplessness, she recalled the scene of being bullied by her classmates when she was a child, and the faces that had bullied her came at her.

"Get out of here!" Mu Lan said angrily, she used the dagger in her hand to wave away those shadows, but those shadows still kept attacking her.

I haven't experienced this feeling for a long time, when Mu Lan grew up, she disguised herself with a cold and tough side, although there was no bullying incident like that, but she still let fewer and fewer people around her, everyone avoided her from afar, and didn't dare to make friends with her.

Loneliness replaced helplessness, those ugly faces disappeared, Mu Lan knelt on the ground, a tear crossed her cheek, a huge sense of loneliness filled her heart, she only felt that there was only herself in the world, there was no understanding, no trust, and no family and friendship.

Just when Mu Lan was filled with boundless negative emotions, the jade bracelet on her wrist lit up with a white light, and the white light wrapped Mu Lan, soft and warm, as if soothing her, Mu Lan only felt a warmth flowing into her heart, her consciousness instantly became clear, and the darkness disappeared without a trace.
