Chapter 3: Night of Horror (3)

Although he escaped the deadly culling of the ghosts, Yechen's hope of escaping was shattered, and he could only be chased by the ghosts in the supermarket to escape. After less than ten minutes, the desperate escape exhausted Yechen's physical strength, and she couldn't run.

No matter what, if you continue like this, you will really die! Yechen gritted his teeth and rushed towards the supermarket window. She was going to break the glass and escape.

This is not an ideal choice, the impact of hitting the thick window pane with the body may break you, and it may not be able to shatter, and the glass under modern technology is not as fragile as imagined. But at this time, Ye Chen can't be allowed to take a safety hammer and slowly break the glass - there is a ghost chasing after him!

Just when Yechen was carrying an iron pot in his hand, guarding the front, gritting his teeth and closing his eyes and rushing towards the window, the ghost once again showed a special ability to teleport, blocking in front of Yechen, and she hit the ghost again.

Bounced off by the reaction force, Yechen fell to the ground solidly, she really didn't have the strength to continue running, and the previously suppressed despair reappeared, trying to extinguish the last bit of her desire to survive.

No! Even if you die, you won't be crushed to death by the despair in your heart! Yechen once again engaged in crazy self-suggestion, forcing himself to calm down.

Ye Chen never expected that the ghost didn't pounce, just stood in place.

What's going on? Also, what is it? Yechen felt that her left eye was sticky, and she reached out to wipe it, it was all blood. Again, it turned out that there was a bloody wound on his forehead, which was half long, and he may have been scratched by something sharp when he fell, and the blood did not stop.

Yechen closed her left eye, looking at the fierce ghost with an angry face, but no longer taking a step forward, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she remembered the terrifying story that Tang Wu told her before: "...... A ghost...... He likes to peel off people's skin alive and wear it on his body...... I was very careful when peeling, and I didn't allow any ...... to break it at all."

If you think about it this way, it seems to make sense, but why is this happening? Isn't it possible that the ghosts in horror stories have escaped from the books?

No matter what, I can't care so much now, as long as there is a glimmer of hope for survival, I must seize it. Regardless of where it came from, at least so far, the ghost behavior fits the horror story, and that's enough.

Ye Chen grabbed the sharp knife that peeled and deboned with his hand, and was ruthless, piercing the skin of his left arm and slashing hard.

Even if it didn't hurt a large blood vessel, the wound that was more than ten centimeters long still made a large amount of blood come out, like spring water, and soaked most of her body in a few blinks.

"Nope! What are you doing?! The ghost shouted miserably.

Seeing that the ghost stopped approaching, Yechen laughed, revealing a hint of madness, and said, "Store manager, I like this sharp knife very much, you can give it to me!" As he spoke, he made a long bloody cut on his thigh.

The ghost's eyes were full of unwillingness and resentment, but it still slowly retreated and gradually disappeared.

Let's go? It should be gone, Yechen breathed a sigh of relief, he really didn't guess wrong, what that ghost needs is a perfect human skin! She threw the sharp knife in her hand aside, grabbed a few towels from the shelves, bandaged the wound briefly, stood up against the wall, and staggered out of the supermarket.

Even if that ghost is gone, this Sound Moon Supermarket can't stay, so I'll leave now!

Yechen didn't pay attention, the door of the supermarket storage room was staggered, and Tang Wu was observing everything outside through this gap.

Yes, I have a good understanding! Tang Wu praised Yechen in her heart, this is a very simple task, but for newcomers, it is already very good to be able to comprehend the trick of customs clearance so quickly.

Watching Yechen stumble out of the supermarket, Tang Wu yawned, planning to continue sleeping for a while, the task was over, and she could go back after dawn. As a result, as soon as Tang Wu turned around, she froze.

The fierce ghost who likes to peel human skin is standing in front of the bed, playing with the sharp knife that Yechen has just thrown on the ground, his cloudy eyes are full of greed and cruelty, and he said, "Your skin is also very good!" ”

……

Shouldn't it, isn't it the right way to bandage your wounds? Although it looks scary, the wound is actually not deep, why does the wound on the arm and thigh keep bleeding out and can't stop at all? With a large amount of blood loss, Yechen's consciousness began to blur, and his eyes became hazy. Fortunately, her destination is near, and the light not far away is the police station, there are police officers on duty twenty-four hours a day, as long as they get there, they will be saved.

Walking to the light and falling into the door, Yechen collapsed to the ground, unable to stand up. Before she passed out, a question crossed her mind: Why didn't anyone come?

……

I don't know how long it took, but Yechen gradually woke up and found himself in a room. The area of the room is quite large, about more than 100 square meters, solid wood flooring, pale yellow wallpaper, furniture...... Nothing furnished, the whole room was empty.

A small black kitten stood not far away, looking at itself with concern. Odd? How can a cat have such a rich expression.

Seeing Yechen wake up, the little black cat spoke, yes, spoke: "Congratulations, little master, you have passed the test of the seventh space and become a trialist." ”

Can a cat talk? This in itself is a bit scary, but because of excessive blood loss, Yechen, whose brain is still in a state of confusion, can't take care of it so much, no matter whether the little black cat in front of her is a spirit, a monster, a demon, or a fairy, she has only one request: "Can you send me to the hospital?" ”

The little black cat came over and comforted: "Don't worry, your wound has scabbed over and will recover after a while." ”

Yechen looked down, put his mind at ease, and said, "Thank you." "Such a long blood wound can scab over so quickly, it should also be thanks to this magical kitten.

The little black cat smiled slightly and said, "You're welcome, I'm your space elf, Feifei, this is what I should do." ”

"Space elves?"

"Yes, space elves, elves that the seventh space has for every trialist."

The Seventh Space? As if he had heard this word just now, Ye Chen asked, "What is the seventh space?" ”

The little black cat Fei Fei's face became serious, and she said solemnly: "The seventh space is a great, omnipotent, and irreversible existence. The tone is as pious as a saint talking about the gods.

Well, Yechen continued to ask, "What is the trialist?" ”

"A person who has been selected by the seventh space to conduct trials in one mission world after another."

It sounds a bit like the infinite space in the novel, but the chosen ones in the novel, whether they are the protagonists or supporting characters, are not very good! Yechen asked tentatively, "I...... Can I quit? ”

Fei Fei blinked her eyes and said, "The seventh space, don't be disobedient. ”

Although she didn't have much hope, hearing this answer still made Yechen sigh, she gathered her spirits and asked, "Do you have any advice?" ”

Fei Fei thought for a while and said, "Try to live, try your best to live." ”

Yechen smiled bitterly and said, "I'm quite good at this." "Sometimes Yechen wonders how he managed to survive such a difficult time.

Although there are still many questions, the most important thing now is your body. Yechen asked, "Can you give me a glass of sugar water?" "She is now weak in her limbs and weak all over, and she needs to replenish her energy and get some rest.

What the future and fate will be, Yechen still doesn't know, but the living conditions provided by the seventh space for the trialists are still very good. Furniture, lighting, including wallpaper and flooring that have already been renovated, can be replaced at will, and even partitions can be made to divide the place into several small rooms. Of course, it's not completely free, and the trialists need to pay some gold as a price.

Yechen sat on the sofa in the living room, looked at the room that had been renovated "instantly", and asked, "Feifei, how many gold coins did you spend in total?" ”

The little black cat Fei Fei squatted on the coffee table, stretched out her paw and calculated, and said, "A total of fourteen gold coins were spent." ”

"It's so cheap!" Yechen sighed heartily. The room of more than 100 square meters is divided into a living room, bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, and a small storage room, equipped with sofas, low cabinets, tables and chairs, double beds, wardrobes, kitchen utensils, bathroom furniture, and lockers...... All of this was done for fourteen gold coins. You must know that Ye Chen completed the "Novice Mission" and was rewarded with a hundred gold coins.

"This is what the trialists deserve." Fei Fei said with a smile.

Ye Chen looked at the ring on the little finger of his right hand, showed a wry smile, and said, "This is also what the trialist deserves." ”

Glowing with a silvery-white metallic luster, it is made of nine artistic bamboo leaves, which is the Seventh Space Ring that represents the identity of the Yechen Trialist. Although it appears to be worn on the hand, it is actually deeply embedded in the soul, and even if the body dies, the soul is still controlled by this ring.

Cleaning up his mood, Yechen asked, "What should I do next?" ”

Fei Fei said: "Take a good rest, adjust your condition, and prepare for the next mission." The master has only gone through the novice quest, and if he wants to become a real trialist, he still needs to complete the advanced quest. ”

"What are the advanced missions?"

Fei Fei explained: "There are nine points in the ranks, and the cultivators are divided into nine ranks according to the strength of their souls, and each time they are promoted to a rank, they need to complete an advanced task. You can only be counted as Tier 0 now, and the next task is the Advanced Quest where you will be promoted from Tier 0 to Beginner. ”

After a pause, Fei Fei said seriously: "Generally speaking, advanced missions are the most difficult of all mission types, but you are still a novice, and the first advanced mission will be relatively simple. ”
