Chapter 352: The End of the Road
"Dreams have to have an ending." Qiu Xuan raised her hand and gathered the quilt, feeling the inevitable cold air in the village at night and digging straight into the mattress under her. "After all, no one knows what will happen to the executioner who doesn't make it all by the final settlement time."
……
- In fact, Qiu Xuan himself is not very guaranteed when he says this.
She silently clutched the bark strapped to her shoulders and sat on her motorcycle with squinting eyes to see what was passing by around her.
This road, which they, outsiders, had already walked many times during the day, and this muddy path was the only way to go from Jinlin Village to Houshan. The convoy drove fast in such a harsh, rugged, thick and dark darkness, as if it didn't care about any of the safety rules for driving at night.
In fact, the concerns of those executioners who choose not to dream are not unreasonable, one less day of dreaming will have one less chance to trigger the death condition. The best plan Qiu Xuan has made now is that tonight they will fight quickly and go directly to the finale, which will not only avoid falling asleep on the last day, but also prepare for spoilers for other executioners in advance.
It's just that the dream progress has been consciously leveled out, so now she is not sure if this practice is effective.
Unexpectedly, the convoy of gas masks drove all the way along the familiar road to the land in the back mountains. After driving to the place where they blew up the hole during the day, they stopped, and then everyone got out of the car and started walking.
Qiu Xuan was unaware of why he was walking in the rugged mountain road, walking and walking, and the corner of his eye seemed to catch a glimpse of something in the dark night. She looked intently, and for a moment choked.
"Brother, there seems to be ...... behind you"
She couldn't finish saying this, because the moment she said this, the eyes lying on the back of one of the gas masks turned around, staring straight at Qiu Xuan. Most of them were white, red, and blood-colored eyes turned, narrowed, and floated up and down and began to laugh.
Qiu Xuan resolutely shut up.
She finally realized the psychology of Shen Jingxue seeing what was behind her in the tomb but closed her mouth and didn't dare to speak, the gas mask that didn't realize that she was being targeted pushed her threateningly, and said, "Keep going, don't try to play tricks." ”
It's a threat, you're going to die.
Qiu Xuan's footsteps moved a little farther away from the person, and after taking two steps, she wondered if the gas mask walking behind wouldn't remind her companion. So he glanced back very slightly, well, the people behind him had already the skinners who came out of nowhere.
The movement at the end of the queue attracted the attention of the people in the front row, and one of the villagers muttered loudly, "Why is it here?" The movements of his hands were still very familiar with the bark draped over his body, and he was entangled with the skinning demons that were surging in the darkness.
Qiu Xuan symbolically struggled twice before letting go and letting the demon's sharp knife stab the top of her head to peel off the bark, she was now in a safe state, and when she looked back, she found that the situation of the gas masks was not as easy as it was for her.
The bark they draped on their bodies did play a certain role in confusion, but once the individual was stripped of the bark, although the monsters would ignore that person to a certain extent, in the process of chasing the next person, the boning knife in their hands would inevitably go to those people.
To use an analogy, it's as if the existence of the individual has been weakened in the eyes of the demon, but there is still a vague outline there. Maybe if you're unlucky or don't dodge, you'll die under the boning knife.
This situation is completely absent from Qiu Xuan, who is like air to the skinners at the moment, and none of them will come to her place after being stripped of the bark.
Is it because this method has been used too many times for the villagers, so there is a kind of "resistance"?
As he thought so, the first bloody human skin stained with minced flesh fell off as one of the gas masks screamed violently. After him, the diminutive skinners paused for a few seconds, turning their blood-covered skins as if looking for prey, and then once again rushed towards where the gas masks were standing!
"How so!"
"Damn, the bark isn't useful anymore, these things are smart."
"Evacuate!"
In the suddenly chaotic team, two gas masks rushed straight over, pulled up Qiu Xuan and rushed in one direction. Their path was often interrupted by the evil ghosts that suddenly appeared, and the people who pulled Qiu Xuan changed from the first batch to the current batch, almost running in a certain direction on a new blood road.
There was a mess behind him, Qiu Xuan glanced back, and saw that one of the gas masks seemed to be struggling with great inwards, and then took out a piece of red cloth from the cloth shirt.
That is the red cloth used to make the wedding dress, which is the piece that the temple begged for.
Seeing him take out the red cloth, not only Qiu Xuan was surprised for a moment, but even the villagers around him who were still fighting hard against the skinning demon looked extremely surprised. Qiu Xuan saw that the eyes that had always been lying behind one of the gas masks lit up the moment she saw the red cloth.
The villager quickly shoved the red cloth into the arms of one of the demons, and then waved a machete around it for protection, and the rest of the gas masks reacted and gathered around the demon who was about to put on the red cloth.
Under such absolute protection, the demon put on his clothes contentedly.
A scene similar to the grotesque scene that had preceded it occurred, and with a tooth-aching sound of knots convincing, the skinned man, who had been covered in red and blood, regrew human skin. The calf joints are also re-attached, and the whole figure is raised to a normal human shape.
Click.
The demon who was about to be reborn was like a leaky ball, and a broad palm held the entire top of its skull from top to bottom, and as the liquid exploded and splashed, the "clothes" were torn off its body again.
"Yes, yes......"
A gas mask stared at the scene in front of him in a daze, and suddenly reacted and ran away. With a gentle wave of his slender knuckles with sharp nails, hundreds of skinning demons swarmed up and easily executed the fleeing villager.
"No way, I checked it when I came, who brought it here!"
A woman's voice sounded like it was beginning to crumble, but then she thought of something and seemed to mumble to herself, "No, no, it's not dark yet, she doesn't have the right to do that." That's right, it's not dark yet, she can't do that, she can't ......"
The woman's words were not finished, it was almost time for a breath, and her limbs were bent backwards behind her body. He fell to the ground with a bang, blood oozing from under the corpse, and the whole person looked like a giant spider.
Qiu Xuan was still looking back, and a movement was pushed to a narrow door by the gas mask holding her by her side, and only a few survivors were left to squeeze into the door, no longer caring about the companions who were left in place to stay with the evil god.
Yes, evil gods.
Qiu Xuan could see clearly from the side, starting from the ball of eye hair lying behind the gas mask, and extending straight upwards until a tall and oppressive figure was formed in the dark night.
The woman slowly lit something in the air with her sharp nails, and the weird smile at the corner of her mouth was about to tear her face, and then pinched to death the skinner who was happily wearing "clothes", hugged the red cloth into her arms, and rubbed it lovingly.
In the end, Qiu Xuan only had time to see those sharp nails lit in the air, and the screams in his ears were endless, and soon, he was cut off by the narrow door that was heavily covered.
Except for Qiu Xuan, there were only three gas masks left in the team.
And the place where they walked into with people now was like a secret passage that only a few people knew. The other end of the passage undoubtedly leads to the underground tomb.
Qiu Xuan was silent for a while, "Why did that woman kill someone?" ”
The few surviving people did not squint, and walked in with extremely rapid steps. Qiu Xuan was forced to run almost in the passage, but she still didn't give up, "There was a woman who seemed to say just now, 'It's not dark yet'. Why, but it's night? ”
"Can a female evil god only kill after dark? But why did I see her kill people during the day? ”
"You ......"
"Shut up!"
It seems that he has finally endured it anymore, and it seems that he has not yet recovered from that unwarranted disaster. A voice that sounded extremely young roared from the gas mask, and Qiu Xuan could hear that this was the young man who had been reprimanded for saying the wrong thing in the temple before.
"What can be the reason for that woman to kill someone, she killed it if she didn't like it! I warn you, if you say another word, I'll throw you out and in front of the woman right now!" ”
Qiu Xuan was extremely calm, "Then why do you risk your own lives to bring me here?" ”
"Shut up." A gas mask walking in front turned his head, his tone did not sound serious, and even a little weak, but for a moment the young man who was like a cannon battle fell silent, lowered his head and did not dare to say another word.
The man swept over him, his gaze focused on Qiu Xuan.
"You shouldn't ask so many questions, 'bride'." He said, "You're going to be done soon, and all we can do is get you here." ”
"What's the end of this road?"
The air was dead for a long time, and Qiu Xuan thought that no one would answer her again, but after a while, there seemed to be a faint sigh from the mouth of the gas mask walking in the front.
"I thought you already had the answer, 'bride'."
"The end of the road is the beginning, the beginning is the end, all things are reincarnated, return to the end, back to the beginning."
"It's not just you, it's all the same." In the end, Qiu Xuan only had time to see those sharp nails lit in the air, and the screams in his ears were endless, and soon, he was cut off by the narrow door that was heavily covered.
Except for Qiu Xuan, there were only three gas masks left in the team.
