Volume 4 Trial Horror Chapter 1 Lonely Light on the Night Road
After the dizziness in his mind disappeared, Zhou Qi's vision gradually became clear.
He quickly took a look at his surroundings, and there were towering thousand-year-old trees on the left and right. A little light that only shines through the leaves indicates that it is daytime.
It seems that he has been teleported into a forest.
Zhou Qi checked his status and found that there was nothing abnormal. Instantly connect to your newly purchased tablet via the coat of arms. According to the azimuth coordinates on the computer, the direction is roughly identified.
According to the general trend of high in the west and low in the east, he chose to go all the way to the east.
At this time, the hint of space was finally long overdue.
"The current scene is a strange Chinese ghost story. Mission Mode: Personal Trial. The first stage of mission 1.Find Ning Caichen's whereabouts within seven days. Completing the task rewards 5000 Bloody Points, Free Attribute Points X1, and Skill Points X1. If the mission fails, the trial ends, 20,000 blood points will be deducted, and all personal attributes will be permanently reduced by 10%. ”
"I'll rub!" Zhou Qi looked at the rewards after the completion of the task and the punishment after failure, and couldn't help but have the urge to scold his mother. The disparity between the front and back is too great.
And in the vast sea of people, let yourself go where to find Ning Caichen.
After a moment, he forced himself to calm down. According to Fu Yunsheng, space will not give tasks that cannot be completed. There must be some hidden clues that I didn't realize.
A Chinese Ghost Story, the Way of the World? That being said, the entire mission plot will not deviate from what is covered in the movie of the same name. Thinking of this, Zhou Qi's eyes lit up.
The Tao of the World belongs to the sequel to A Chinese Ghost Story, and according to this understanding, Ning Caichen should have left Lanruo Temple not long ago. That's right, Lanruo Temple. If you want to find his traces, you must first find the exact location of Lanruo Temple.
It seems that we can only go to a populated place to inquire in detail first.
Zhou Qi walked all the way. The body is as fast as lightning. Walk through the giant trees. Looking at the gradually flattening terrain under my feet and the increasingly sparse trees in front of me, I felt a little settled.
According to the time recorded on the computer, it took him about 3 hours to finally get out of the huge woods before dark.
Beyond the woods, there is a vast wilderness. As the sun set, a rugged dirt road loomed in the distance.
Since there is a road, it is easy to do. Zhou Qi sighed softly. Narrow dirt road, running north-south. With limited knowledge of history and geography, he chose to head north.
The wind is bleak in the wilderness, and the sun is setting in the sky. It made Zhou Qi, who was hurrying along the road, feel a little bit like fighting the end of the world.
A Chinese Ghost Story is based on the story of Nie Xiaoqian in Strange Tales of Liaozhai. Since it is a strange chat, it is natural that goblins and ghosts are indispensable.
Seeing that the sky is getting darker and darker, I don't know what level I am in this world according to my current enhancement ability. Zhou Qi was secretly a little more vigilant in his heart.
Just before it was dark, I faintly saw what seemed to be a light flashing ahead. Zhou Qi was overjoyed in his heart, and in order not to look too shocking, he slowed down a little and ran towards the place where the lights were shining.
As the lights became more and more obvious in front of him, Zhou Qi finally saw it. It turned out to be a convoy of people moving along the road. The lights that were shining just now were the two dead wind lamps that were barely used for lighting next to the car (an ancient oil lamp used for night roads or hanging in front of the store)
I finally saw a figure. In this wilderness, it is a hundred times better to be able to touch a living person than to meet a dead person.
Zhou Qi stopped, thought for a moment on the spot, and strode over.
The silence of the wilderness, the slowly rolling wooden wheels make the axles creak and make a tooth-wrenching sound. Two ox carts dragged behind, one full of firewood and straw and numerous jars and jars. It appears to be used exclusively for the transport of debris. The other was covered with a thick bed of straw mats on the high bulging body. Can't make it clear what is on the ground in the car?
In the center are two carriages surrounded by a cloth curtain. At the front of the convoy, two knights dressed in ancient costumes with Haoran scarves wrapped around their heads, dressed as chivalrous. One man carried a spear and a sword on his back. The other person has a double knife at the waist and hips.
As soon as Zhou Qigang approached, he immediately attracted the attention of the two knights. The knight with the sword at his hip flicked his horse's head and greeted him.
By the faint light, the knight squinted and looked Zhou Qi up and down. Seeing that Zhou Qi was dressed strangely, he didn't look like a villain. Then he hugged his hands in front of his chest and asked Zhou Qi loudly.
"My friend came here in the starry night, I don't know what to do?"
"Hi, uh, in the next week, I missed the accommodation due to a hurry. In the wilderness, when he saw a light on the road, he took the liberty to come and disturb him. Zhou Qi seemed to learn from him to hug his fists, which can be regarded as a greeting. As for the hi, it's purely a matter of habit.
"In Xia Song Qian, the clothes of his friends are not like those of the Central Plains. Are you looking for relatives or friends along the way? ”
"Your Excellency is right, I have lived overseas for a long time, and this time I went to the Central Plains to find relatives. Please also find a convenient way, and leave at dawn tomorrow. Zhou Qi bared his teeth secretly, it was really awkward for this ancient person to speak. If it weren't for the braided drama on TV, it would have been cultivated for a long time. But even if it's a few words, it's really choking to hold it out.
"That's great, please wait a moment." Song Qian shook the reins, and the horse galloped to the front carriage and whispered to the person in the carriage for a moment. Then he reflexively rode and trotted over.
The host said that it was okay, but he had to aggrieved his friend to rest on the back of the firewood cart for a while. After waiting for the cloudy wind in front of you, you can camp and rest. ”
"Uh, thank you!" Zhou Qi hugged his fist in a similar way. Following Song Qian's side, he walked to the ox cart located in the rear.
"Yin Feng Crossing? Interesting. Zhou Qi jumped lightly and got on the ox cart, but he secretly slandered himself in his heart, and the ancients chose a place name so vividly. It's not meant to be designed to scare people.
In the wilderness beside the roadside, there were night owls that flew by from time to time. From the wind, the low roar of a beast could be heard in the distance.
As the convoy moved slowly, a chill came faintly in the whining wind.
The coachman who drove the ox cart, except when Zhou Qi got into the car, squinted and glanced back at him. The whole person had already shrunk his head under the wide hat, and there was no response.
Smelling the strong smell of alcohol coming from him, Zhou Qi shook his head slightly, is this considered drunk driving?
The ox cart shook all the way, making people drowsy. Zhou Qi lay on his back on the pyre, silently thinking about the idea of this mission amid the sound of the clattering of pots and jars. After the Yin Feng Crossing, you must find an opportunity to inquire about the location of Lanruo Temple.
Just as he had been on the ox cart for about an hour, the horses in front of him suddenly heard a faintly uneasy neigh. At the same time, there was also a slight burning pain on Zhou Qi's right arm.
"Huh?" Zhou Qi suddenly opened his squinted eyes. Is there a situation?
In a previous battlefield mission, when I encountered the vampire, the mark on my right arm sent the same burning sensation. It's just much stronger than it is now.
Before and after contact, could it be that you really encountered a ghost?
He hurriedly sat up, and in the wilderness on both sides, the wind was getting louder and louder, and the wind lamp kept swaying. The chill in the wind grew heavier and heavier.
Zhou Qi glanced at the flickering lights, and vaguely, he felt that his eyes were hazy, and the faint light seemed to be covered with a thin veil, a little more blurry. At some point, a layer of fog rose around the body.
He quietly took out the scimitar and held it tightly in his hand. His eyes scanned the darkness around him inch by inch.
"Moo!" The old ox pulling the cart suddenly let out a loud cry, and the ox cart under him stopped moving forward. At this moment, the horse pulling the cart in front let out a long neigh, and suddenly raised its front hooves high, and the man stood up.
With a gust of cold wind blowing through the bones, Zhou Qi seemed to see that in the wildness on the left side of the body, a shadow like light smoke trembled and seemed to float over slowly.
Zhou Qiyi squinted his eyes, he knew it very well in his heart! This is no illusion!
The white shadow drifted closer and closer, and suddenly the dim light of the wind lamp suddenly grew, and the flames were actually a few inches higher! The pale yellow fire turned into a strange blue color with the surging flames! Under the foggy night, the carriage looked indescribably gloomy in a moment!
Although I have watched many Hong Kong versions, Thai versions, and American versions of ghost movies on TV, Zhou Qi still feels a chill in his heart, and his scalp feels numb!
Just as he was preoccupied with the strange white shadow, an arm silently reached out to him and patted him lightly on the shoulder!
