Chapter 17: The Verge

Finally, the wind stopped, the valley became unusually silent and depressing, and the Huangjia Village was lifeless, and the sound of heartbeat could be heard quietly. Xia Yong looked out through the window, it was already pitch black, he couldn't see the scenery clearly, he thought to himself that this place had been completely isolated from the outside world, he had fought countless ambush battles in the past criminal investigation work, and captured all kinds of fierce and crazy criminals, he was confident, but today he had to fight with ghosts, and to catch ghosts, on the eve of this war, there was an inexplicable tension and fear in his heart.

There was a muffled thunderstorm, and a heavy rain fell down, and a curtain of rain was suddenly hung between the heavens and the earth, and there was a roar of rain everywhere. The wind also rose, blowing the rain line, the wind and rain were shaking, and Huangjia Village was covered by a torrential downpour. The valley was pitch black, and only the windows of the three wooden houses at the entrance of the village shone brightly.

Originally, the three wooden houses were not far away, and they could still see each other vaguely after the sky turned dark, but when the rainstorm came, the rain curtain was separated, and it was impossible to see the situation on the other side. Qiu Tian looked back at the walls around him, they were all made of thick tree trunks, and he reinforced some of them, which was quite strong, and it was raining very heavily outside, but the roof was not leaking. Qiu Tian put the military searchlight in the window, in order not to alarm the ghosts, he did not turn on the light, and the torch was lit in the house, but it was not prosperous, and the fire was floating, flickering and dimming. Qiu Tian looked at the weapon, the firepower was okay, plus the searchlight and firelight, it should be able to block the attack of those monsters, the key is that this wooden house must be strong, and it cannot collapse in the attack of monsters and the storm. If the wooden house collapses in the wind and rain, it is over.

The rain outside the house was very loud, and Qiu Tian could neither see the situation in the rain nor hear the sound outside, but fortunately, he could use the communicator to contact Comrade Liu and Xia Yong. At this time, I heard Xia Yong say: "Comrade Liu, will these ghosts really come?" ”

Comrade Liu said coldly: "Judging from what happened to the villagers of Huangjia Village, these creatures have been tracking and attacking humans, they have been chasing Huang Dawang for three days, and they have been led here to discover Huangjia Village, and they will definitely attack here." ”

Xia Yong smiled bitterly and said: "These ghosts are really good at picking the weather, and they appear when it rains on a cloudy day, just like in the movies." "In the midst of the storm, the temperature also dropped a lot, and the raindrops were blown into the window by the wind and hit the skin, which was cold and cold. Xia Yong shuddered and asked, "Qiu Tian, have you seen anything?" ”

Qiu Tian replied: "No." ”

Xia Yong looked at the heavy rain and complained: "This ghost weather, you can't see anything, God doesn't open your eyes, those ghosts had better not come at this time." However, he was glad that the villagers had evacuated, otherwise the ghosts would attack at this time, and the villagers of Huangjia Village would not be able to escape. If he and Comrade Liu and Qiu Tian came for half a day late, this Huangjia Village might become a ghost village.

Neither Comrade Liu nor Qiu Tian answered, and all three of them became silent, concentrating on observing the situation outside. The heavy rain became lighter, and finally stopped, Qiu Tian looked at the time, it was already more than nine o'clock in the evening, there was no rain line, the vision was much better, and he could see the faint light of the two wooden houses opposite.

The ground was full of puddles of mud and grass, the wind was silent, the cold was wafting through the village, and the eaves were dripping with droplets. The sound of the rain disappeared, and Huangjia Village became silent again, and the silence was unbearable, Xia Yong thought to himself: Strange, why haven't these ghosts come yet.

Comrade Liu said: "Don't be impatient, those creatures may have been frightened by the afternoon sunshine and become more cautious. ”

The three of them always paid attention to the surrounding situation, there was no special movement in the dark, Xia Yong waited more and more anxiously, looked at his watch, they had been waiting motionless in the wooden house for several hours, Xia Yong said: "Damn, they are not here yet!" ”

Qiu Tian's wooden house was facing the village, he squatted in front of the window, intently inspecting, on the left was the boundless grass, the grass was pitch black, the night wind blew, the grass danced wildly, and he couldn't see if there was anything hidden. Huangjia Village is empty, only the dark shadows of wooden houses, which are eerie and terrifying. Qiu Tian is also becoming more and more anxious, in such a dangerous situation, there is only this way to wait for the rabbit, whether it can succeed depends on luck.

Qiu Tian watched intently around the wooden house where Comrade Liu and Xia Yong were, because there was only one window, Qiu Tian, Comrade Liu and Xia Yong were all hidden in the wooden house, and no one could see the situation around their wooden house, so they could only help each other to observe.

After a while, it crackled and rained again, the rain gradually became heavier, the wind became stronger again, Xia Yong frowned and cursed, "Hell, it's raining again!" "The rain poured down in the dark night, and the three of them stayed in the wooden house for several hours, and found nothing, but they became more and more energetic, and the long night was long, and the further they went, the more dangerous it became, and they must not let their guard down.

The wind and rain in the valley, Qiu Tian looked at the time, it was already more than 11 o'clock in the middle of the night, there was a muffled thunder outside the house, and occasionally a few lightning bolts crossed the rainy night, Xia Yong suddenly said: "Something is wrong!" ”

Qiu Tian also felt that something was approaching, it was pitch black outside, I don't know if it was from the southern grassland or from Huangjia Village, and the breath of death immediately rushed over.

Comrade Liu whispered: "Be careful, they are coming, get ready!" Then he said, "Don't act rashly, do what I command!" ”

Qiu Tian picked up the gun and stepped back, he looked around the wooden house, there were no loopholes behind him, but the feeling became more and more obvious. Qiu Tian knew that it was pitch black outside the house, and although there was no special movement and he couldn't see anything, those ghosts were outside. The rain was still falling, accompanied by bursts of thunder, Qiu Tian held his breath, the atmosphere became more and more tense, suddenly, he felt as if something was buckling the wooden wall behind the house, and something had climbed up the roof, and the wooden house was already surrounded by monsters! Qiu Tian held the gun tightly and looked up at the roof, wondering if these ghosts would break into the house.

The wooden house was quite sturdy, Qiu Tian cautiously walked to the window, it was pitch black outside, and he couldn't see anything. Because there was no order from Comrade Liu, it was not possible to turn on the searchlights for illumination, so as not to alarm those ghosts. The movement around the wooden house gradually decreased, and it seemed that everyone gathered in front of the window. Comrade Liu whispered, "Keep waiting." ”

Qiu Tian picked up the gun and aimed at the window, he knew that the ghosts outside already knew that they were hiding in the wooden house, because the wooden house was sealed all around, and there was only one entrance to the window, so those ghosts would rush in at any time. Because of this, the goblins gathered outside the window and entered the encirclement formed by the three wooden houses.

Qiu Tian knew that the ghosts were outside the window, and he might not dare to approach because of the fire coming from the house, but Qiu Tian couldn't get close to the window to prevent the ghosts from suddenly attacking, so he could only stay in the house. The two sides were alone in the house, a group of ghosts surrounded the house, through the wooden wall, no one moved, the situation was on the verge of breaking out, and it was a stalemate.
