Chapter 6: Murder
Lin Xi, who was about to leave, paused for a moment and looked back at Chen Fan with a strange expression, "What do you want to say?" ”
"If I told you that there was going to be a catastrophe here tonight, and you had to go down the mountain immediately to avoid it, would you believe it or not?" Chen Fan said what seemed to be very grotesque in a rather serious tone.
Lin Xi immediately fell into surprise, she stared at Chen Fan silently for a long time, and suddenly laughed out loud, a pair of smart eyes were full of cunning, "Actually, I also have something to tell you, my real identity is an agent, and the purpose of going up the mountain this time is to prevent this disaster, do you believe it or not?" ”
Lin Xi was very proud and made a big joke with Chen Fan, because he was the one who made the joke first.
"Oh, that's a blessing!" Chen Fan regained his indifference again.
These young men and women living in a flashy city can't understand the horror of the end times at all, Chen Fan knew that she wouldn't believe herself, but he still said it, reminding Lin Xi, just to make himself feel guilty.
Walking into the villa, the lively atmosphere in front of Chen Fan made Chen Fan very uncomfortable, the hall was full of many men and women, the men were well-dressed, the women were beautiful and moving, obviously, most of the people who could make friends with people like Zhao Gongzi and received invitations to enter this banquet hall were the elites in the city.
Chen Fan's appearance caused a lot of commotion, at least twenty pairs of eyes stared at this strangely dressed guy, and someone asked in a low voice, "Who is this person, is he also a friend of Zhao Gongzi, why haven't you seen it before?" ”
Zhao Gui coughed and walked out of the door with a smile, "Everyone don't pay attention to him, he's just a bum, Lin Xi looks at him pitiful, so he brought it back to enjoy a bowl of rice to eat, everyone continue to play, don't spoil the atmosphere." ”
He deliberately bit the word "tramp" very hard, as if belittling others can set off his nobility.
"Oh......"
The crowd suddenly realized that they directly ignored Chen Fan who was standing in the corner, Chen Fan didn't care about the eyes of these people, walked to an inconspicuous corner alone, and sat down to observe the terrain.
He walked into the villa not in search of food, but out of strategic necessity.
Chen Fan didn't know how many alien beasts would appear next, let alone how long the otherworldly space would last, and it would take a lot of risk to stay alone on the edge of the waterfall, so he needed a place where he could engage with alien beasts.
Although the woods in the back mountain are also good, but in comparison, there is not only good wine here, but also plenty of food, of course, it is more suitable for stationing, although the owner here is not very friendly to him, but Chen Fan does not care.
Who cares about a dying man?
Feeling a little hungry, Chen Fan stuffed a piece of dim sum into his mouth, chewed it slowly, and slowly sent it down with a glass of water, and then took out the "long stick" in the mountaineering bag.
In fact, he would love to eat another compressed biscuit, but it seems that there is not enough time.
Through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the banquet hall, Chen Fan could clearly control the environmental changes on the other side of the waterfall, the waterhole was fogged, at first there was only a small one, but it spread quickly, and the white mist slowly rose from the waterhole, as if pushed by an invisible hand, and gradually extended to the villa.
Chen Fan kept his gaze fixed on the window, and could only see a faint white, with visibility of less than ten meters.
"What's fogging?" Someone spotted the white mist and took the initiative to walk towards the floor-to-ceiling window.
Zhao Gui took a sip of red wine and said casually, "Fogging is a normal phenomenon, what's all the fuss, are you afraid that a monster will come out and eat you?" ”
The joke drew laughter.
The laughter didn't last long, and there was a whining sound outside the villa, which made the crowd stunned, and then a woman in a white dress suddenly stood up and said, "Oops, it's my little becky, I forgot it in the car!" ”
"Who is Becky?" Zhao Guileng paused.
"It's my pet dog, a white schnauzer, maybe I haven't been out for too long, it's in a hurry!" The woman was about to push the door open, but before she could push it open, the dog's sobs had turned into a terrible wail, and the hoarse vocal cords were accompanied by a roar of pain, like thunder and lightning piercing everyone's eardrums.
The woman who was pushing the door covered her mouth in fright, and retreated back into the hall trembling, her face was already white with fright, "Why does Xiaobei make such a scream, it's ......"
"Shall we go out and have a look?"
"Go and see, I'm not going!"
The sudden white mist made everyone feel very uneasy, and the barking of the little dog just now was too abrupt, and everyone in the hall looked at each other with unnatural expressions.
Chen Fan didn't pay attention to these people's emotions, but lowered his head and fixed his gaze tightly on the palm of his hand.
Because, he had already sensed the fluctuation of "Yuan Force".
There was a gray spot the size of a five-cent coin on the palm of his hand, which showed that Chen Fan's physical ability was gradually awakened, he immediately adjusted his breathing, every breath seemed to have a smooth rhythm, there were sporadic bits of heat energy beating in the respiratory tract and lungs, the energy in the air was being absorbed by his body, and the small spots on the palm of his hand became brighter.
But it's still far from the first evolution!
After two seconds, Chen Fan lowered his arm and locked his gaze on the tumbling white mist outside the window. The appearance of Yuan Li also indicates the opening of the otherworldly channel, and those alien beasts that smell the breath of human beings are probably ready to move, right?
When Chen Fan stared at the window, there was a footstep beside him, it was Lin Xi, who had invited him in before, "Hey, do you know why there is such a big fog outside?" ”
Without waiting for Chen Fan to explain, Zhao Gui's sneer was already in his ears, "Forget it, Lin Xi, he knows a fart!" ”
Huang Hao, who had always coveted Lin Xi, also squeezed out of the crowd, "Lin Xi, don't worry, I will protect you immediately if there is any danger!" ”
"Huang Hao, this is my home, even if there is danger, I will protect Lin Xi, what does it matter to you?" Zhao Gui is like a dog peeing everywhere, declaring sovereignty.
Chen Fan saw the open and secret battle between the two in his eyes, and his smile became even colder.
"Okay, don't make any noise, we need to find someone who is more daring to go outside and check the situation! Who do you think is the best fit? Lin Xi interrupted the argument between the two.
"Of course this kind of thing let me go!" Huang Hao immediately stood up and took off his shirt as if showing off, revealing his strong biceps.
"It's not safe to be alone."
Lin Xi looked at Chen Fan, who was huddled in the corner and refused to speak, and said hesitantly, "Chen Fan, can you go out with him?" ”
Although Chen Fan was not good-looking, and his strange dress was incompatible with the atmosphere of the banquet, he was the only one who could maintain his composure after the thick fog appeared, combined with what he had said this afternoon, his intuition told Lin Xi that this strange person should know something.
Chen Fan didn't say anything, but Huang Hao was anxious, straightened his chest and said, "Lin Xi, do you look down on me?" ”
"Forget it, I'll go out and see it myself!" The woman in the white dress suddenly walked towards the door, her pet dog was still outside, and she couldn't wait to push the door out and have a look.
Lin Xi hurriedly stopped her, "Sister Juan, don't go!" ”
But after pushing open the door, Sister Juan had already plunged into the thick fog, and she didn't hear Lin Xi's voice at all, she quickly disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the sound of her footsteps gradually moving away echoed in the thick fog.
"Why did she go out alone, you guys go up and see!" Lin Xi was worried about Sister Juan's safety, so she hurriedly urged a few people around her.
At this time, Chen Fan had already unzipped the mountaineering bag, took out the bow and dagger, first pinned the dagger to his waist, and then began to fill the folding crossbow with steel balls.
The long knife was unsheathed, and was placed within reach by Chen Fan, the cold edge attracted everyone's attention, and Huang Hao, who was about to chase out the door, changed his face, "Who are you, why do you carry this kind of thing with you?" ”
Yes......
At this moment, Sister Juan, who walked out of the door, heard a miserable scream, interrupting Huang Hao's questioning.
The screaming lasted less than a second before it came to an abrupt end, and the creepy sound made everyone in the room agitated.
"What's wrong with Sister Juan?" Lin Xi's face turned pale, and she subconsciously hugged her best friend next to her, her best friend's face was whiter than her, and she said in a trembling voice, "Lin Xi, how do I feel...... This villa is weird, it can't be a ghost, right? ”
"Hmph, I don't believe in any ghosts, even if there are ghosts, someone is pretending to be a ghost!"
Huang Hao glanced at Chen Fan pointedly, strode towards the door, and shouted at the door as he walked, "Sister Juan, what's wrong with you, but you are talking?" ”
It was very quiet outside the door, except for the "whirring" of the wind wandering, and there was no response.
"What a wicked sect!" Huang Hao casually picked up the red wine bottle on the table, and walked to the door with courage, the false door shook, and a white mist mixed with cold wind poured into the room, and the sound of "creaking" from the door frame made Huang Hao pause, and his eyelids jumped unnaturally twice.
The horror of the unknown made everyone hold their breath and fix their eyes on the door without moving.
The doorknob rotated slightly, and the door was slowly opening inside, and out of the thick fog came a woman with a dull expression, a white dress fluttering in the cold wind.
"It's Sister Juan!"
The crowd breathed a sigh of relief, Huang Hao put down the red wine bottle and said, "Sister Juan, you scared everyone, what were you calling just now?" ”
Sister Juan stood quietly outside the door, the cold wind stirred her long hair to fly, covering most of her face, she quietly raised her dull face, but her eyelids didn't even blink, she suddenly smiled weirdly at Huang Hao, gently hooked her fingers, and motioned for Huang Hao to come closer.
"Do you have something to say?" Huang Hao didn't notice anything strange, muttered a sentence in his mouth, and walked towards Sister Juan.
"Stop!"
Chen Fan in the corner suddenly stood up, locked his eyes containing murderous intent on Sister Juan's dull eyeballs, and without the slightest hesitation, immediately raised the folding crossbow flat on his chest and quickly pressed the trigger.
Sou!
The steel ball broke through the air at an ultra-high speed, bringing out a trace of afterimage that was difficult to capture with the naked eye, bang" A muffled sound, there was a "click" sound of skull explosion in the air, and the steel ball was in the center of Sister Juan's eyebrows, and a thumb-sized blood hole exploded in the middle of her forehead, and the blood gushed out, merging into two red streams, covering her eyes.
"Kill...... Kill! ”
The crowd was stunned at first, followed by terrible exclamations and roars.
